“Welcome Additions” is a retrospective of recent additions to Princeton University Library’s special collections within the Cotsen Children’s Library, East Asian Library, Graphic Arts, Manuscripts, Marquand Library of Art and Archaeology, Numismatics, Public Policy Papers, Rare Books, Scheide Library, University Archives, and Western Americana. The exhibition is on view in the newly opened Ellen and Leonard Milberg Gallery at Firestone Library.
The exhibition theme, as described by Curator of Rare Books Eric White, “plays on the notion that our recent acquisitions may reflect either long-awaited opportunities to enhance existing collections, or unexpected ways of moving beyond traditional collecting interests.”
