Join us for an engaging and informative moderated panel that delves into the transformative role rare and distinctive (special) collections can play in driving research excellence, community engagement, and institutional advancement. The ARL Scholars and Scholarship Committee is hosting this session to advance conversation within the Association about how members are thinking strategically about their special collections.

In this member session attendees will hear from three leaders about their institutional strategies for engagement with special collections. There will be time for attendees to share what is happening within their organizations.
