We are always interested in hearing patrons’ views of archives, so this blog post was of special interest. Elesha Coffman, a history professor at Waynesburg University, shares her four keys to effective archives work in “The Art of the Archive.” (more…)

The current exhibition Many Littles Make a Much: A Selection of Miniature Books from Drexel University’s Special Collection has been on display for a couple of weeks now, and has received a fair share of admiration.

A reception for the show is planned for July 22.  Watch this space for more details.

In addition to the physical exhibition, an online version is now available.

For more information about this exhibition, future exhibitions or to see miniature books, contact the archives.

Next time you swing by the Lower Level of Hagerty Library, be sure to check out the Drexel University’s Special Collection exhibition: “Many Littles Make a Much” — a collection of miniature books.

The exhibition cases have recently been moved to make room for the periodicals, now also located in the Lower Level. The exhibition is now along the north wall.

Be sure to pass by often to see new exhibitions as they happen!

For more information about the Special Collection, contact the University Archives.

This week is Drexel’s break between sessions, so the University Archives will close at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, June 17.  We will resume our regular Wednesday evening hours next week, June 24.  Hope to see you then!
