Classes in Special Collections

Special Collections works with faculty to hold classes that develop the primary source literacy skills of their students.

Classes are offered both face to face and online. We can work with students in Microsoft Teams, Zoom, or Blackboard. We provide:

  • Digital resources
  • Active learning exercises
  • Discussions about collections and research

These will prepare students to use primary sources in our reading room or remotely.
