Coffee with Veterans

The curator of the Women Veterans Historical Project (WVHP) invites you to a “show and tell” of some of her favorite items in the collection. The WVHP is the preeminent research archives of the history of women who have served since World War I in the U.S. military and the American Red Cross. With holdings from over 750 women veterans, the WVHP preserves and makes accessible oral histories, uniforms, photographs, posters, recruiting materials, newsletters, scrapbooks, artifacts, diaries and more! 

Beth Ann Koelsch has been the curator of the WVHP since 2008. She previously worked as a project archivist at the Sallie Bingham Center for Women’s History and Culture at Duke University, Durham, NC. She earned her Master’s in Library Science (MSLS) degree from the School of Information and Library Science at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2007 and her undergraduate degree from Duke University in 1990. 

Coffee and snacks will be available before and after the presentation in the entryway. No food or beverage is permitted in Hodges Reading Room.
