Outside of CSU’s National Library Week festivities, there
are additional events happening around CSU libraries. Near The Express Einstein
Bros. Bagels, located on the first floor of the Schwob Memorial Library,
exhibits the new Government Documents exhibition.
This is one of many Government Documents exhibitions
displayed this semester. Patrons of the library and foodies of Einstein’s Bagels
are invited and encouraged to review the exhibition and any other Government
Document exhibition.
The current exhibition features historical elements of The
Civil War and was curated by CSU Technical Services Assistant and graduate student, Jesse Chariton. Along
with other highlighted areas the historical war and period, American military history is also a featured theme in the collection.
"The purpose of the whole endeavor is to promote the use of Government Documents, in general, by showing that books exist in the collection which are of interest to all majors" Chariton added. Previous displays included NASA/Space Exploration, Current Events, Black History and Women's History month.
