This summer Denise Alexander Bittner presented Albertsons Library a collection of more than 300 books about Ernest Hemingway, his writings, and his literary associates. The John Robert Bittner collection, named in honor of Denise's late husband, a Hemingway scholar who was a professor of journalism at the University of Norh Carolina, is housed in Special Collections.
Special Collections has put up a display in both of our display windows as well as the wooden exhibit cases outside the department showcasing the collection and the career of John Robert Bittner. Stop by and take a look.
