Preservation Services is turning 90!

In honor of 90 years of the Preservation Services Unit, the staff has curated an exhibit that tells the story of our department. If you've ever worked with us, wondered what we were doing behind the scenes, or want to know more about the history of the unit, come see the exhibit in the Main Library Gallery and North-South Corridor during the month of April 2025.

An exhibit opening event will be held Friday, April 4, in Main Library Room 106 from 1:00-3:00 pm. It will feature talks by Dean Stewart, Jennifer Teper, and our Preservation team. Refreshments will be served. All are welcome!

We are thrilled to show 90 years of rich preservation history and are excited to keep providing access to the Library's collections through preservation, conservation, and digitization for the next 90!
