A Day At The Library

NTAAC had a unique chance to go behind the doors at the J. Erik Jonsson Central Library and discovered a world of local history stuffed into shelves, boxes and microfiche.

It was a tight squeeze for this well attended tour.

Here, Brian discribes some of the items in the photographic collection.

One of my favorites from the rare book collection was this copy of Ulysses, illustrated by Henri Matisse. It includes two preliminary charcoal drawings by the artist. Here is a link to their online digital collection.
