Up next: Two Types of Book
Are you new to the University of Utah and need to plan your next semester’s curriculum? Perhaps, you’re just looking to add a different textbook or film? The Marriott Library has some great ideas for you.
Migrant Connections (a component of the “Race and Ethnicity in Global Contexts” research project) has provided the opportunity for student participants of the University of Utah’s Transfer Diversity Scholars program to gain experience in the practice of conducting oral history interviews.
Book Arts Program students trigger quite a commotion as they showcase the final editions and ingenious bookwork created as part of spring and fall semesters’ courses. As the world of the printed page explodes in different directions, these students utilize the ensuing pandemonium to instigate stunning innovations in the art of the book.
You should be looking at the Fine Arts & Architecture Collection! The collection is located on the second floor of the Marriott Library and is home to over 20,000 volumes including artists’ books and the Latin American Avant Garde Collection.
We are always excited to recognize great work and accomplishments within the library. These two are no exception!
