"We are a group of government documents librarians and K-12 school librarians  who meet up and share the best info for students (of all ages) that comes from government sources.  There are a wide variety of government generated documents covering all kinds of topics.  This site is designed to help classroom teachers and librarians navigate some of the government documents available through our members.

"Students and teachers can login to the DocHub app (or DocHub.com) using their Google account. From there, it is possible to upload any PDF, text document, or Microsoft Office file from Drive, the web, or even your computer/Chromebook download folder. Once a document had been uploaded, students can highlight, draw, insert text boxes, and even incorporate sticky notes. These annotated PDFs can then be sent to Drive or even shared with a link. Unlike some other web-based annotation tools, all of the annotations remain with the PDF after it has been sent to Drive though the sticky notes only appear when shared with a link."
