“100 Years: Penn State Wilkes-Barre, 1916-2016,” is now on display in the Art Gallery in the Academic Commons building at Penn State Wilkes-Barre. The exhibit, which draws on the rich material available in the Penn State Wilkes-Barre campus archives, highlights key events in every decade of the campus’s existence. Jennie Knies, Head Librarian, and Megan Mac Gregor, Student Engagement and Outreach Librarian, collaborated on the exhibit, which will remain in the gallery through the fall semester. A virtual, online version of the exhibit is available for viewing via Prezi.
