Libraries across the country preserve items that help people understand local history and culture. These items are often grouped under the term 'special collections'.
We've created this section because we think it might help demonstrate this part of what libraries do, and encourage people to explore special collections at libraries.
The response to our first special collections story will help us figure out whether we create more of them.
We want to know what you think. Should we produce more stories from library special collections? What kind of stories would you like to see?
