When: June 11-15 and June 18-21, 2018
Where: Various locations in Cambridge, including Historical & Special Collections
Cost: Free! Space is limited, however, so be sure to register below.
HSC will have a ton of great material for you to check out, including a small display featuring items from the Cambridge Tenants’ Union records and Community Legal Assistance Office records. Other highlights will include items from a wide range of collecting areas and formats, including early manuscripts, rare books, and audio-visual material.
If you’re a Harvard Law School or Harvard Library affiliate, save room for members of the general public to visit HSC on June 19 and swing by the next day—Wednesday, June 20—between 12:00 and 1:30 instead. All members of the HLS and Harvard Library communities are welcome to stop by during the June 20 open house before we take down the display.
