Archival Adventures: World War II Scrapbooks

Archival Adventures: World War II Scrapbooks

It's time for an adventure! This week we’re headed to World War II with three scrapbooks. First, a Red Cross scrapbook from Pikeville, Kentucky, provides an American perspective. Then, we will explore both sides of the war in Europe with scrapbooks from both British and German soliders. See the list of items pulled for this week’s stream: bit.ly/ArchivalAdventures141

Join our community collections archivist, Anthony Wright de Hernandez, for a livestream on Twitch! Every week we explore and discuss materials from Special Collections and University Archives covering topics including university history, NASA pioneers, architecture, science fiction, cooking, LGBTQ+ history, Black history, urban legends, and more. Recordings of previous streams are available on the Libaries' Youtube page.
