This event is free and open to all Oxy students, alumni, faculty and staff. We are kicking off Homecoming & Family Weekend with this gathering, so we encourage you to stay connected and attend the programming to follow - particularly the celebration of the late Dr. John Slaughter.

This workshop will introduce you to Special Collections, which holds rare and unique items such as early printed books, manuscripts, historical artifacts, ephemera, contemporary fine press and artist’s books. You can use many of these items to support your assignments, but you can also just look because you are curious!

This workshop will be held in the Braun Room of the Oxy Library.
