Today is National Typewriter Day ⌨️! Within the Virginia Hamilton Adair Papers is an Olympia typewriter that Adair used following the loss of her sight in 1992. With assistance from friend and fellow Claremont poet Robert Mezey, Adair used the typewriter to write poetry and published a book titled Ants on the Melon (1996). The book made Time Magazine's Best Seller list in 1996. Adair would go on to publish Beliefs and Blasphemies (1998) and Living on Fire (2000).

The University Library’s Juneteenth 2026 Book Display highlight's themes drawn from communities, organizations, and cultural institutions throughout the United States. Juneteenth honors the accurate history, culture, resilience, and achievements of African Americans.

Inspired by commemorative themes from across the country, this year’s display explores the many dimensions of Juneteenth through the University’s theme, “Remembrance, Reckoning, and the Courage to Rise Together.”

We invite you to discover books and other resources within our display that deepen your understanding of Juneteenth’s rich history, lasting impact, and relevance today.

For this year’s University Library Pride Display, library folks Catherina and Erik combined LA Pride’s 2026 theme, “Rise with Pride,” with a celebration of music, particularly dance and house music, and the underground communities and cultures that helped shape these genres. The display explores how dance music, rave culture, and house music are deeply intertwined with LGBTQ+ history. Emerging from communities that rose in the face of exclusion and adversity, these movements continue to inspire and evolve today. Whether through personal expression, finding belonging in shared spaces, or connecting through music, the values of unity, freedom, and community remain at the heart of these cultures. Their legacy lives on through the music, spaces, and communities that continue to uplift, empower, and bring people together.

📚 **The University Library is Hiring!** 📚

Special Collections and Archives (SC&A) is looking for **two PolyX Scholars** to participate in the inaugural **PolyX Center for Primary Source Literacy and Archive Practice (PSLAP)** program!

Designed in alignment with Cal Poly Pomona's polytechnic mission, the new PolyX program provides hands-on, applied experience working with archival collections and primary sources. PolyX Scholars engage in real-world projects that address access, representation, digital preservation, and public memory keeping—core areas within contemporary archival practice and cultural heritage.

**As a PolyX Scholar, you will:**

• Work approximately 10 hours per week over a 15-week semester (150 hours total)

• Learn core archival practices including arrangement and description, metadata creation, preservation handling, and digital collections and access systems.

Scholars will receive one-on-one mentorship from archival professionals, collaborate with a cohort of students from multiple disciplines, and contribute to real, public-facing projects.

For more information, please see the SC&A PolyX LibGuide:
