Event Details

It started out as Thomas Jefferson's book collection but became the American people's, an ever-evolving treasure trove of books, photos and all kinds of media. Historian and researcher Vincent Rossi will share slides showing some examples of what the library has preserved and offers to the public, from early maps and oral histories to a pre-World War I Krazy Cat cartoon. And those are just a few examples!
