Several changes were implemented to the Library's Web pages at the start of the second summer session. We invite you to visit Special Collections and University Archives this summer to view our current exhibit, which will remain on display through July 31st. Curiosities from Special Collections and University Archives is on display in the 2nd floor lobby, Main Building, and in the Special Collections Reading Room. Staff have combed Archives and Special Collections for the most curious, interesting, and bizarre items they could find. A major renovation of the Reference Department was completed recently and has resulted in a split of the Reference Offices where the Reference Librarians are located.
