Event Details

Have you wondered what treasures are hiding behind the locked doors of the library archives and rare books room? Spring 2022 is your chance for a sneak peek at some cool stuff! On the fourth Thursday of each month, 4:30-6:30 p.m., we’ll be unlocking our doors and offering you a close-up look at maps, books, and other objects from our special collections. 

This Thursday, February 24, we’ll be sharing items around the theme of Globalism, including a copy of a map of the world originally created in 1674 in China. Drop in! Access our space through Archives Classroom 254 on the library’s Level 2. Questions? Ask us. https://www.macalester.edu/library/askus/
