Please join the Friends of the Library for a special presentation on Sylvia Plath's early poetry manuscript, recently acquired by our Rare Books and Special Collections. Presented by Dr Aaron Nyerges, this event offers a unique opportunity to discover the Library’s newest acquisitions and gain insight into the formative years of one of the twentieth century’s most influential poets.

Light refreshments will be served afterwards.
