SFPUL Tour of ReCAP Facilities
Join the Student Friends of the Princeton University Library for a behind-the-scenes look at ReCAP.
What is ReCAP? ReCAP (Research Collections and Preservation Consortium) is an off-campus storage facility with more than 18 million books shared with Harvard, Columbia, Yale, and the New York Public Library. The ReCAP team will provide a tour of the facility and share how the collections are stored and processed. Books ship out daily to and from Princeton and the other institutions -- and the Student Friends will get an exclusive inside look.
The group will depart from Princeton and will have transportation provided to and from the ReCAP facility.
After the tour, we'll head to lunch at a restaurant in town, courtesy of the SFPUL. Space is limited!
