Temple: Urban Archives and More 

Get an inside look at materials taken from the extensive archives of Temple Library's Special Collections Research Center.

FitC members who attended this trip in April enjoyed it! And there are a few seats left for a repeat session. 

Director Margery Sly, Director of SCRC, will introduce us to Urban Archives, Contemporary Culture Collections, Rare Books, Philadelphia Dance Collections, and many more.

A brief discussion will be included both about how to access the collections and how to gather and make some of the digital content (such as Archive-It) accessible. 

Thanks to FitC member Jerry Kreider  for organizing these trips.
