This Library of Congress collection has information on Jackie Robinson and lots more. This site includes lesson plans, class activities, and many additional resources. Standards are included. As always, the images are the star of the show, and there are pictures of early teams, documentation on Robinson's entry into the big leagues, and much more. This site also includes some information about primary sources. Well worth a visit.
