Temp page for Amber

Three University of Virginia Library employees want to introduce new audiences to some under-the-radar horror films that are worth your time.

When Gayle Cooper was a little girl picking cotton on her family’s subsistence farm in Alabama, she had no idea she would go on to become one of UVA Library's longest-serving employees. 

The ‘Visions of Progress: Portraits of Dignity, Style, and Racial Uplift’ catalog, showcasing the photos and stories of African Americans in central Virginia during the early 20th century, is in partnership with ... the University of Virginia’s Small Special Collections Library.

Linton worked with Sue Donovan, a book conservator in Special Collections at UVA Library to study the bodices and ensure they did not contain traces of arsenic.

Through its summer classes and events, the institute encourages the University community to experience its interactive approach.
