Walter Library 100 Pop-Up Exhibit – National Library Week edition
In addition to the resources listed above, join us on April 11, 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m., for a mini-exhibit about the history and construction of the first “new” library on campus. Meet in the unique and historic Upson Room (room 102) to explore campus history and view blueprints, then and now images and more. Go on a mini-tour and pick up stickers, postcards, and bookmarks to celebrate Walter Library. Free. All are welcome.
National Library Week, sponsored by the American Library Association, is an annual celebration highlighting the valuable role libraries, librarians, and library workers play in transforming lives and strengthening our communities.
