In October an unusual event will be taking place in the Reference Reading Room of the Wells Library. It is a book exhibition that celebrates the acquisition by the Indiana University Libraries of an extensive Polish collection formerly owned by the former Central Trade Union Council (Centralna rada zwiazkow zawodowych – CRZZ) Library of Poland. It is a very unique collection consisting of more than one thousand unique booklets, brochures, and research monographs, many of which are not owned by any libraries outside Poland now. Even more unique than these monographs are the serials, which number more than 120 titles. They include 20 of the 22 national periodicals that were published by the trade union movement of Poland up until 1980. Combined, these serials and monographs will contribute to making the IUB Library one of the major repositories of rare research materials pertaining to the history of the workers’ movement of communist Poland. This exhibition is held in tandem with an international symposium to be held on campus on October 22^nd in commemoration of the 20^th anniversary of the Polish independent social movement Solidarity (Solidarnosc) and an one-credit course entitled “The Technology of Revolution” to be taught by Prof. Padraic Kenney of the Department of History. The exhibition will be open on October 4^th and will last until October 29^th. The exhibition is curated by Wookjin Cheun, librarian for Slavic and East European studies. Please direct any questions regarding this exhibition to him at wcheun@indiana.edu.
