Out of Storage and Into the Stacks

Are you a glass collector or enthusiast? This Wednesday May 5 at 6 p.m. the Jean Outland Chrysler Library will host Curator of Glass Kelly Conway in the Library Reading Room for a unique opportunity. Join us for Out of Storage and Into the Stacks and view fine pieces from the Chrysler’s glass collection alongside rare books from the Chrysler Library’s extensive glass research collections. Treasures from both collections will be on display and we will discuss how to use the Library’s resources for glass identification and research.


Whether you already have an extensive collection of glass or would like to learn more, this is a great opportunity to learn how to begin your research.

Space is limited to 20 participants and room is still available, so please R.S.V.P. For more information, contact Laura Christiansen at (757) 965-2035 or at lchristiansen@chrysler.org

Thanks for a Wonderful Saturday Afternoon !

Special thanks to everyone who attended last Saturday's Workshop in the Library. We certainly enjoyed discussing the Library's resources and learning a bit about the many interesting items being researched. Unable to attend but still want to learn how to get started with your research? Keep an eye on the blog for future workshops or stop by the Library for more information.

Are you ready for some research?

There's still time to join us tomorrow,  Saturday January 23, 2010 at 1 p.m. in the Library
for an introduction to using the Jean Outland Chrysler Library’s resources to investigate mystery items in your personal collection. This workshop is free for Friends of the Library, and only $5.00 for others. We look forward to seeing you there!
