by

UW Libraries Media Center Blog
Contrary to popular belief, librarians and archivists know how to have a good time. Next Tuesday, experience a post-modern pastiche of music and sounds at the first annual UW Libraries Dance Party. Staff archivists will be on hand playing tunes and spinning vinyl from UW Libraries’ audio holdings over at the Odegaard Undergraduate Library. Come to dance, listen, and learn more about the Libraries’ unique holdings, such as the Crocodile Cafe and Kearney Barton collections. This event is free and open to the public.
