Welcome, Summer!

Special Collections can't wait to get into the SDSU Summer Session, beginning today! We're very excited for a summer of important projects and events in Special Collections, including: launching our newest video tutorial, called Using Finding Aids; a redesign of the library's website; the release of a suite of major archival collections, including the San Diego Opera Collection; and the launch of our Virtual Reading Room. The Virtual Reading Room (powered by Archon Version 3.14) allows us to embed digital copies of materials in archival collections directly into the collection's online finding aid, so that users can access collections digitally exactly as they would see them in our physical Reading Room.
We are also looking forward to welcoming our new Dean, Dr. Gale Etschmaier, who will be joining the library on June 30!
Stay tuned to hear more about newly processed collections, new acquisitions, upcoming events, and exciting new tools from Special Collections!
