Ex Libris: Special Collections and Archives New Acquisitions Exhibit

Over the past couple of years, Special Collections and Archives has received an inordinate number of donations and transfers. The pandemic and subsequent lockdown meant that many people suddenly had time to look through their closets, basements, and offices for items they no longer needed and wishes to give away.

The Special Collections and Archives staff are pleased to share a small glimpse into the numerous acquisitions from the past two years. In this exhibit, you will find photographs, music, notebooks, artwork, printing woodblocks, and books ranging from medieval texts to works published last year.

For the first time, a digital version of the exhibit is also available.

The exhibit was curated by Special Collections and Archives staff. It will be on display through the end of October.
