Belk Library

Randall Bowman, a reference/instructor librarian at Elon University, presented in November at the Library Instruction 2.0 Conference, sponsored by the North Carolina Library Association’s College and University Section, and held at the Friday Center in Chapel Hill. 

A collection of records and letters relating to the “Wilmington 10” civil rights activists of the 1970s is now available on the Belk Library web site, thanks to the efforts of an Elon alumna working toward her graduate degree in library sciences at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Award-winning author and public education reform advocate Jonathan Kozol visits Elon University on Sept. 23 for its 2008-09 Common Reading Lecture to share with college students the joys of serving impoverished children.

Two record books from the early years of the Christian Church are now available online through Elon University’s web site for researchers to access anywhere in the world.

A student scrapbook now on loan to Belk Library is offering the university a rare glimpse of campus life in the 1920s. The book, which belongs to a family with historic ties to Elon, includes letters, music programs – even photos taken inside the Old Main administration building just hours after a 1923 fire threatened the future of the school.
