Newberry 101: An Introduction to Research at the Newberry
@ Newberry Library
60 W Walton St, Chicago, IL 60610
Opening Saturday, January 18th, from 9AM - 10AM
Interested in exploring the Newberry’s vast collection of rare books, maps, manuscripts, and primary sources but not sure where to start? Then this session is for you. In an informal orientation, Newberry librarians will introduce you to the Newberry and break down how to use our collection. If you’re new to the Newberry, new to research libraries, or an occasional visitor ready to take your humanities research to the next level, “Newberry 101” is a must.
The session will last approximately an hour and be followed by a short tour of the library. Afterwards, you’re welcome to begin exploring our collections in the General Reading Room, where a reference librarian will help with suggestions and assistance.
Registration for this event is not required. To maximize research time, feel free to register in advance for a Newberry Readers Card here: https://requests.newberry.org (Select “First Time Users.”) Readers Cards will be issued during the orientation.
