An Invitation
For those of you who havent been by the NAU
Cline Library, Special Collections & Archives Department lately, we encourage you to
stop in for a look at the Librarys current exhibit, Grand Legacy, which highlights
our holdings relating to Glen, Marble, and Grand canyons. Included are items from the
Emery Kolb, J. Harvey Butchart, P.T. Reilly, Georgie Clark, Arizona River Runners, Grand
Canyon River Guides and other collections. The exhibit will be up through December of this
year. You are, of course, invited to peruse the collections in depth at any time.
Need the story on James White? The oar versus motor controversy? Were there
really Aztecs in the Grand Canyon? (No, but the cover alone on Prince Izon is worth a
look.) Or perhaps your trusty ammo can would benefit from a few Kolb photos pasted to the
inside of the lid.
Whatever your river research needs may be, come on over (with your photo ID).
During the fall semester, the departments hours are 96 Monday through Friday
and 10:302 on Saturday. The phone number is (602) 523-5551.
I will be at the fall meeting with Kolb videos that need some identification
work. Special thanks to all of you who helped identify Kolb and Georgie prints at the
Spring Guides Training Seminar.
