BUS-eum and Book signing
Posted by mightylibrarian on September 5, 2007
On September 17 the Williams Library will host two events:
- BUS-eum - a 40-foot school bus converted into a mobile museum that will bring the stories of Midwest POWs in Nazi Germany to life. The exhibit consists of narrative display panels illustrated with photographs and documents, audio and DVD documentaries, artifacts and more. Presentation College library and the Alexander Mitchell Public Library are co-sponsors.
When: 11:30am-2:30pm
Where: South side of the Williams Library (corner of 14th and Washington)
- Book signing - South Dakota author David Volk will discuss and sign his book Draftee: A Highschool Teacher Goes to War. “Volk shares an altogether original and incredibly vivid account of the Vietnam experience. At times derisive, yet surprisingly tender, the author, a correspondent and combat photographer, introduces a menagerie of crazies and eccentrics—and a few good men.” Copies of the book will be available.
When: 12-2pm
Where: Williams Library
