In with the New: Recent Acquisitions in Special Collections and Archives exhibit

Visit the archives research room in Steely Library room 106 to get a sneak peak at new archival collections in our latest exhibit In with the New: Recent Acquisitions in Special Collections and Archives. This exhibit takes visitors through the process of acquiring unique archival material and highlights four newly-received collections. These rich collections include art, papers, artifacts, and photographs that document a variety of themes in northern Kentucky history. The exhibit highlights the papers of Della Lewis Jones, a local African American educator; the art and family papers of Charles J. McLaughlin, an area artist and architect; research and manuscripts from Theodore H.H. Harris; and marketing materials from Louis Trauth Dairy.

The exhibit is open to the public from 1-4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday in room 106 on the first floor of Steely Library.
