A visual tour through the university’s new Special Collections Library:
The library is open to the public at this time, but the exhibits are still under construction. A grand opening is scheduled for Friday, Feb. 17, 2012.
The new reading room is open for students to do research. Students can file a request for archive materials online and use them in this area.
The staff area is where library employees pull out and organize archive material that students and professors have requested for research.
