Special Collections Resources for Other Librarians
Gathered together here are some of the custom solutions we've developed for reading room access and collection storage. We hope they'll be useful to other special collections libraries (or anyone else interested). Please send comments, questions, or suggestions to special_collections@provlib.org. Enjoy!
We commissioned a comic book style guide to research for artist. The guide itself is designed to general enough that other libraries could repurpose it for their own uses (we also include a separate insert with information about PPL and other local libraries). You can download the printable pdf and InDesign files for the template from this link, where you can also read the comic and learn more about its production.
