Welcome to the IU Southeast Library newsletter!
Featuring the latest Library news, featured articles, research help info, and much more!
Latest News for September:
Eighty Years of Grenadiers: Archiving IU Southeast History is currently on display in the Library's Art Gallery on the first floor. It includes photographs and records document the founding and first semester of our campus from 1941 to the present day. Letters, newspapers, architectural drawings, and photographs of students and campus buildings in Jeffersonville and New Albany document and celebrate the founding, history, and growth of the Indiana University Southeastern Extension to our current Indiana University Southeast.
Images were curated by Lior Ben-Shalom, a graduate student in the certificate program of Modern World History in the School of Social Sciences, for the fulfillment of an archival internship with Melanie Hughes, Librarian, Coordinator of Archives & Special Collections.
Ben-Shalom was featured in a Horizon article by Caleb Stultz.
Come check out this exhibit before it closes in October!
