Renovation Continues: A Peek Behind the Curtain

We want to share some of the progress that has being made on the new Special Collections and Archives facility. Special Collections continues to be open during the renovation, though we do not have access to some of our collections. With the help of our student, Danielle Owens, we will peek behind the construction curtain to see how things have changed this week.
