Open House at the University of Miami’s Special Collections

The Kislak Center at the University of Miami, the University Libraries’ home of Special Collections and University Archives at the Otto G. Richter Library, invites the public to take a summer break on campus with its faculty and staff. In the Kislak Center Reading Room, the team will showcase a selection of rare and unique treasures from their holdings. Special Collections Coordinator Robin Potter will lead a presentation of staff picks, favorite hand-selected items, with the team on hand to answer any questions about their resources and services. Whether you’re a returning visitor or discovering the Kislak Center for the first time, this is a wonderful opportunity to explore some of the most remarkable materials in the collection.

Open to the public, the Kislak Center is located on the ground floor of the Otto G. Richter Library on the University of Miami campus. Throughout the year, the center hosts public programs, welcomes research grant recipients, and supports artist residencies, creating opportunities for scholars, students, and the broader community to engage with its collections.
