Each summer,
the UCSD Arts Library features family-friendly exhibits with interactive live events.
The educational components of the exhibits
and
live events are veiled by the entertaining nature of the installation.
The love of reading is emphasized.
The surprising scholarly aspects
of these fun exhibits truly represent the Geisel (Seuss!!!)
nature of this research library.

This summer,
we celebrate all things Nancy Drew.
Does she represent ''girl power'' better than any other pop icon?
Is she our favorite feminist?

Nancy Drew memorabilia

serious Nancy Drew scholarship is sponsored by
the UCSD Arts Library
and
the Friends of the UCSD Libraries
with exhibit assistance from
Barbara Brink,
Barbara Henderson,
