Please join us for a talk by ​​​​​​Charlotte Giles, South Asia Specialist at the Library of Congress 
 

An archive, such as those at the Library of Congress, is never created in a vacuum. The history of how they are created and curated is as important as their contents. Each one contributes to and alters how scholars understand and interpret their research worlds. Library of Congress reading rooms include materials such as books, serials, manuscripts, digital resources, photos, and audio and visual materials, in over 400 languages, openly accessible to the public. Join Giles to learn about the Library’s collections and how to incorporate them into your work.

Open to all members of the Oberlin campus community
