Week Thirteen at The Mayme A. Clayton Library & Museum

This week I enjoyed a site visit to California State University Northridge Oviatt Library. The facility is impressive housing the archives, special collections and stacks in one building. Our tour of the facility was lead by Mr. Steve Kutay the digital specialist librarian at the Oviatt Library. The most interesting aspect of the tour was the storage unit at the center of the library. The storage unit spans two stories, is completely automated and houses infrequently used records and books. After the tour we went to the CSUN art gallery to view Identity and Affirmation, Post War African American Photography. Being that MCLM is a museum it is important to stay abreast of current exhibits in the region.
