2026 Special Collections Fall Open House

Event box

Join Princeton University Library in Special Collections for our annual Fall Open House!

Showcasing the work of Special Collections, the event features recent acquisitions and materials used in Princeton classes, as well as by researchers from all over the world. 

The open house is a unique, after-hours opportunity to visit the Special Collections Reading Room and to learn about items newly added to Princeton’s renowned Special Collections. In addition to viewing materials up close, attendees will be able to ask questions of curators, conservators, and other SC staff in attendance. 

Registration information:
Princeton University affiliates are welcome to drop in, though registration is requested to help us anticipate numbers.

Members of the community should register to facilitate access to Firestone Library and the event.
