On behalf of ReConnect/ReCollect: Reparative Connections to Philippine Collections at the University of Michigan, the public is invited to We Collect and We Connect: Philippine Collections in the U-M Library, a Special Collections After Hours event at the University of Michigan Library. The event will take place Tuesday, January 10, 2023, from 4:00 until 5:30 PM.

Drop by anytime in room 660 on the 6th floor of the Hatcher Library during this open house for an opportunity to peruse Special Collections' extensive collection of letters, diaries, photographs, maps, books, and other material documenting early 20th-century Philippine history and an opportunity to learn more about ReConnect/ReCollect: Reparative Connections to Philippine Collections at the University of Michigan. Library staff and project team members will be on hand to answer questions about the collections and the project. Light refreshments will be provided!

ReConnect/ReCollect is a two-year project funded by the Humanities Collaboratory to develop a framework and practices for culturally responsive and historically minded stewardship of the Philippine collections at the University of Michigan.
