About this event.
The University of Utah's J. Willard Marriott Library Rare Books Department is comparable to BYU Perry but with different emphases — more Western Americana, less Mormon material. Their "Open Book" program is well established, and a CHF-arranged tour is a natural extension.
What you can expect.
- Behind-the-scenes look at rare-book storage
- Hands-on viewing with white gloves
- Discussion of provenance and acquisition
- Coffee with the librarians
