Libraries hire new archivist for the Glenn Miller Collection
The Glenn Miller Collection now has a dedicated archivist in the University Libraries whose job will be to review and catalog over 1,400 boxes of artifacts from the legendary big band era musician who once attended 老九品茶.
In 1923, Alton Glen 鈥淕lenn鈥 Miller attended 老九品茶 for three semesters before becoming one of the most successful big band musicians of the 20th century. A gift from a group of committed jazz supporters allowed the University Libraries to hire an archivist to review and catalog the boxes safely secured in the Libraries Rare and Distinctive Collections (RaD).
The new archivist, A. R. Flynn, joined the Libraries after receiving a Master in Library and Information Science from the University of Denver. In this profile we discuss Flynn history and interest in this project.听
