U.Va.’s library on display
See exhibit on building the library through Aug. 27

“Building the University of Virginia Library” tells the library’s story, from its placement“ at the Head of the Lawn” by University founder Thomas Jefferson in the early 19th century to its presence in the global community through digital initiatives in the 21st century.

The display features historic drawings and photographs from the University archives, many of which can be viewed on the Online Visual History Web site at http://mcgregor.lib.virginia.edu/prints/.

The exhibit will be on display at Memorial Hall in the main entrance lobby of Alderman Library.
