Salutations!

During the Final Research Project for my INFO 5000 Introduction to Information Professions, I felt like I was working in a mini-thesis and thoroughly enjoyed myself since I was getting to delve into a historical aspect of librarianship that has long fascinated me – packhorse librarians in my native Kentucky in the 1930s – and even broaden my originally narrow topic to see the vast assistance afforded libraries during the Great Depression by the WPA.

Aside from a meticulously-written paper, I turned my extensive research into a narrated PowerPoint presentation entitled “Books Filled with Culture, Education, and Pleasure: WPA Library Services Across the US.” Here is the link to the resultant YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeL03PEhGys. Enjoy!
