The Special Collections and Archives department will display a pop-up exhibit of materials from its rare book and manuscript collection. These materials will feature historically significant editions of hymnbooks, hymnals, psalters, and music manuscripts from the 16th through 20th centuries. Highlights will include early and first editions of works from the expansive Louis Benson Collection of hymnody and hymnology, including works by Isaac Watts, Tate & Brady, Sternhold & Hopkins, and others. Brian Shetler, Head of Special Collections, will be available to guide participants as they engage with the materials in the exhibit.
N.B. There is a limit of 10 participants for each time this tour is offered.
The display itself will also be available each day for personal perusal from 9:00am-3:00pm.
