Haverford College Quaker & Special Collections re-opening!
Quaker & Special Collections at Haverford College will reopen September 3, 2019 after the completion of a renovation project. This 18 month project transformed Haverford’s Lutnick library, preserving historic portions of the building while adding brand-new spaces. Quaker & Special Collections will reopen with a new reading room, which provides easy access to curatorial staff; a classroom with 30 seats and flexible furniture to allow for a wide variety of teaching activities; processing space; an exhibit gallery; a conservation lab; and climate-controlled secure stacks. These new spaces will allow for the growth and expansion of Quaker & Special Collections programming, including extensive engagement with classes across the curriculum, student-curated exhibits, and research fellowships.
