In honor of the first day of spring, we teamed up with the Office of Sustainability and the Ambler Arboretum of Temple University for a plant talk and walk on Main Campus.

We started the afternoon with a talk by Kathleen (Kathy) Salisbury, director of Ambler Arboretum, about the history of women of the Pennsylvania School of Horticulture for Women, which became Ambler Campus. Kathy covered some of the most prominent women involved in the creation of the school all the way back to the founder, Jane Bowne Haines II, who started the school in 1910. She went on to share stories of Louise Carter Bush-Brown, Ernesta Drinker-Ballard, Letitia Glenn Biddle, and others involved in the school and related organizations, their accomplishments, and their efforts to further women’s rights.

Following Kathy’s talk, Margery Sly, director of the Special Collections Research Center, and Kimberly Tully, curator of rare books, shared information about the archives of the Pennsylvania School of Horticulture in our special collections. Items were on display in the back of the room for attendees to view following the remarks.

Liz Riedman, PhD Candidate in Geography and winner of the Office of Sustainability’s Graduate Research Award for Sustainability (GRASP), utilized the SCRC’s archival materials at Ambler for her research which seeks to challenge historical accounts of urban greening that overlook over the contributions of women in the past and present. This work gave important context for the historic untold stories of the women featured in Kathy’s talk, and further underscores the need to add diverse accounts to the archive.

Next, we headed outside for a tour of trees on Main Campus. Caroline Burkholder, senior sustainability manager, joined us to share information about campus sustainability features and designs along the way. Kathy talked through the history of ginkgo trees. These large, sturdy trees have been around since the dinosaurs and have unique umbrella-shaped leaves that turn bright yellow in the fall. We also smelled the large oval leaves of the magnolia trees that are located right outside Charles Library!

We hope you will join us the next time we invite Kathy back to Main Campus for a tour!

The McLean Contributionship Philadelphia Evening Bulletin Endowed Lecture Series at Temple University Libraries’ Special Collections Research Center

Now in its third year, The McLean Contributionship Philadelphia Evening Bulletin Endowed Lecture Series at Temple University Libraries’ Special Collections Research Center was established to honor the McLean Contributionship’s long-standing commitment to the field of journalism and supporting access to our Philadelphia Evening Bulletin Collection. The series aims to reflect on the past, present, and future of American journalism, history, and culture. Take a look back with us on the journey of this series so far and get a preview of what’s coming up in our next installment of the series on March 30 (originally planned for February 28) with a panel on immigration and journalism!

About the collection

But first, let’s dive into what the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin Collection is! The Collection is a key holding in our Special Collections Research Center’s Urban Archives, which documents the social, economic, political, and physical development of the greater Philadelphia region throughout the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries. The Philadelphia Evening Bulletin was the city’s daily evening newspaper from 1847 to 1982 and was owned by the McLean family from 1895 to 1982. It had the highest circulation of Philadelphia newspapers for 76 years and was once the largest evening newspaper in the United States. The Bulletin Collection was donated to us in 1982 and is used frequently by students, faculty, and visiting scholars and researchers. We are honored to preserve and provide access to this valuable archive documenting Philadelphia history, which includes the George D. McDowell Philadelphia Evening Bulletin Photographs.   

Past series topics

In March 2022, we continued the series with a panel about the future of local and national journalism. David Boardman, dean of the Klein College of Media and Communication, moderated the discussion on current trends in journalism. We were very excited to host a distinguished panel featuring Tracy Davidson, anchor/reporter for NBC10; Gabriel Escobar, editor of The Philadelphia Inquirer; Cherri Gregg, anchor/reporter for WHYY; and Aron Pilhofer, James B. Steele Chair of Journalism Innovation at Klein College of Media and Communication. View the lively discussion on our website.

A look back on the fall programming season, plus a spring preview

Posted on by

Did you know that the Libraries host a free public programming series that is open to everyone each semester? Offerings include readings, concerts, workshops, our beloved Charles L. Blockson Afro-American Collection series, and more. Whether you’re an undergraduate or graduate student, researcher, local Philadelphian, faculty or staff member, you’re invited to join us!

Last fall, our Beyond the Page programming series offered several programs that complemented our celebration of the Philadelphia Jewish Archives Collection, including a kickoff program with Murray Dubin and an exhibit in the Charles Library first floor exhibit space. The exhibit, “Our Greater Philadelphia Mishpachah: 50 Years of Documenting the Jewish Community,” remains on view until March 6. Stop in to view it before it’s gone! We also held a Midday Arts event with poet and writer Elaine Goldstein Terranova, CLA ‘61, which was paired with a pop-up exhibit in October in the Albert M. Greenfield Special Collections Research Center Reading Room featuring papers Terranova donated to the SCRC.

Our Beyond the Notes concerts returned in person last semester. The November concert remembered the 84th anniversary of the Kristallnacht (“Night of Broken Glass”) pogroms with stories of Austrian Jewish composers and librettists, performed by Boyer College of Music faculty member Daniel Neer and friends. It was such a pleasure to hear beautiful music in the Charles Library event space once again!

The Libraries and Press also collaborated with the Intellectual Heritage Program, the College of Liberal Arts, and the Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies Program on an event as part of Temple’s universitywide Hispanic Heritage Month celebrations. Our event brought Philadelphia-based author Carmen Maria Machado to Charles Library for a conversation with Temple Professor Liz Moore. Both the event space and an overflow room filled up with audience members, and we also livestreamed the event.  

The Charles L. Blockson Afro-American Collection continued to offer an exceptional semester of programming that included a Rev. Dr. Leon H. Sullivan centennial celebration and a conversation with Molefi K. Asante and Haki R. Madhubuti about Third World Press Foundation, the largest independent black-owned press in the United States that just celebrated 55 years. 

Interested in viewing a program recording from the fall? You can! Our website features program recordings going back many years. 

What’s coming up this spring 

We invite you to join us this spring in person and online as our series continues. At Charles Library, our programs will explore the experience of making a home in a new place. We’ll look at the stories of immigrants, refugees, and others who have left one home for another, and consider what it means to belong—and to be welcomed into new spaces.   

There is going to be a full lineup of Beyond the Notes concerts. Check the Performing Arts News blog for performance announcements. 

The Blockson Collection will present another installment of the Ione D. Vargus with special guest State Senator Vincent Hughes. They will also host a variety of author talks with Anneliese Bruner, Casarae Abdul-Ghani, Judy Juanita, Diane Turner, Suzanne Cloud and others. And of course, in April, the Bootsie Barnes Jazz Series is back and this year the guest is Gerald Veasley. The African Americans of the Twentieth Century in the Philadelphia Region: Known and Unknown exhibit will be available for viewing through June. The exhibit highlights known and unknown African American Philadelphians in the twentieth century, with an emphasis on the fourteen individuals profiled in BLAM! Black Lives Always Mattered! 

Looking for a book club this spring? We have those too! Join us for lunchtime book discussions of Can’t We Talk About Something More Pleasant by Roz Chast, Such A Fun Age by Kiley Reid, and this year’s One Book, One Philadelphia selection. 

Stay in touch 

There’s so much more! Be sure to bookmark our events page to see our full spring lineup and sign up for our mailing list. 

Elaine Goldstein Terranova and Patrick Lawler participate in virtual Midday Arts Series

Posted on by

Our Midday Arts Series debuted in fall 2016 as a collaboration with the Intellectual Heritage department in order to celebrate the Temple creative writing community and connect directly with coursework in the College of Liberal Arts. Over the years, the series has welcomed Temple faculty, alumni, and friends, including Liz Moore, Andrea Clearfield, Tom McAllister, Ryan Eckes, Meg Lemieur, David Jackson Ambrose, Pattie McCarthy, Darla Himeles, Kai Davis, Herman Beavers, and more!

This fall, we welcomed two guests as part of the series.  

In September, Elaine Goldstein Terranova, CLA ‘61, read from her memoir The Diamond Cutter’s Daughter. Following the reading, Terranova was interviewed by Rebecca Alpert, professor emerita of religion at Temple University. The two discussed what it was like growing up in a Jewish family in Philadelphia. The reading and discussion was recorded and can be viewed on library.temple.edu/watchpastprograms. 

Elaine Goldstein Terranova

Terranova donated her papers to the Libraries’ Special Collections Research Center. They document her career as a poet, writer, editor, and teacher. To accompany the reading, we featured Terranova’s papers in a special pop-up exhibit during the month of October in the Albert M. Greenfield Special Collections Research Center Reading Room and held a book club discussion of the memoir.

In October, Patrick Lawler presented Poemformances (poetry as performance) focused on a number of urgent issues: the environment, homelessness, gender issues, violence, race, and identity. 

Patrick Lawler

After his reading, Caroline Burkholder, sustainability manager, interviewed Patrick on his writing process, using humor to present series issues, and his inspiration. Catch the readings and conversation, now available on library.temple.edu/watchpastprograms.

This series would not be possible without the support of the Intellectual Heritage department, and the collaboration of Professor Jeffrey Lee. We’re excited to see who will participate in the series over the coming semesters. Stay tuned! 

An Interview with Local Poet Ryan Eckes

Posted on by

On Wednesday, October 18, Temple alumnus and Philadelphia poet Ryan Eckes will participate in the Libraries’ Beyond the Page public programming series as the first featured artist in our Midday Arts Series. Join us at 1:00 PM in the Paley Library Lecture Hall (1210 Polett Walk, Ground Floor) to hear Ryan read from his latest manuscript, General Motors. All programs are free and open to all.

Ryan Eckes

I was lucky to catch up with Ryan ahead of his reading, to ask him about his work and life at Temple and in Philadelphia.

 

Beckie: Can you share with us the story of your journey from Temple grad student to published poet?

Ryan: I started in Temple’s MA poetry program in 2005 when I was 26. I wanted a break from waged work and more time to write poetry, and that’s what I got: two years of immersion in reading and writing—and teaching. A teaching assistantship paid for me to be there (which led to my work as an adjunct). Rachel Blau DuPlessis and Jena Osman were great teachers, as were a few classmates who remain friends today. The experience did not lead immediately or directly to any “success,” but I learned the importance of being in conversation with other writers. I overcame my shyness a bit and started going to more poetry readings to continue my education, which I regard as endless. Being part of a community of writers helps to sustain you over time, especially in a larger culture that does not value poetry or history.

B: In that time, you’ve also published two books and are working on your latest poetry manuscript, General Motors. This collection centers around labor and the influence of public and private transportation on city life. What made you interested in exploring these themes?

R: The book grew from my interest in the GM conspiracy to dismantle public transit in the 20th century, my family’s long history of working for SEPTA/PTC, and my own experience as a union activist and organizer. We live in an automobile society that has shaped just about every aspect of our lives, including the way we see one another, communicate with one another and dispose of one another. I’m interested in how the privatization of public goods and services impacts our relationships and our abilities to survive. In my writing I like to point at the injustices we live inside of and ask questions that make people aware of themselves. And I try to imagine better worlds—that’s the hardest part.

B: How would you describe being a working poet in the city of Philadelphia?

R: Fumbling with language in your head as you walk and ride through the city while also trying to get outside of your head. Fumbling with language in your head as you work your job while also trying to quit your job. Fumbling with language in your head as you talk to people while also trying to love those people. Fumbling with language in your head as you read and read and finally scribble the breath onto paper. Finally reading the poem out loud somewhere and feeling completely alive.

B: That’s such a fascinating insight into how ever-present language is in your daily life. I wonder about the Pew Fellowship you were awarded last year—congratulations by the way! What did that award enable you to do?

R: Thank you. The Pew has given me some very precious time to think and read and write. I’ve been able to finish writing a book that I would otherwise probably still be working on. The grant has allowed me to travel a bit, too. I visited Chile last year for the first time and got to hang out with my friend Carlos Soto-Román who introduced me to other poets there. That never would have happened on adjunct pay!

B: Yes, finding the time and space to work is so important! What other advice do you have for other aspiring poets?

R: My advice is to not think of yourself as an “aspiring” poet. I never did. After I fell in love with poetry, I just started writing and never stopped. I didn’t know where it was going to lead (still don’t). My advice is read widely and keep writing and don’t listen to people who say what you’re doing has no value—remember that capitalist culture is absurd. Stay in touch with the thing inside you that compels you to make something, and trust that thing. And don’t get an MFA unless the university pays for it.

Join us this fall for the Libraries’ free public programming series, Beyond the Page. This season features programs that explore the role of communities in our lives. How are we shaped by the language we use, the institutions we take part in, the places we’ve lived, and the people around us? The Beyond the Page series also consists of a variety of other programs, exhibitions, concerts, and events developed around timely topics and in collaboration with our on-and-off campus partners.

On Wednesday, September 20, check out our first themed program of the fall semester: Creating a Welcoming Campus Community in 2017. This program will ask us to consider: What does a welcoming campus look like? How can we build a campus community that is truly welcoming? Meet us at 12:00 PM in the Paley Library Lecture Hall (1210 Polett Walk, Ground Floor) for a conversation with Temple faculty, staff, students, and community leaders about the extent to which Temple is a welcoming place for international students, immigrants, and students and staff of all backgrounds.

This program takes place during the Welcoming America organization’s Welcoming Week. This annual series of events brings together immigrants, refugees, and native-born residents to raise awareness of the benefits of welcoming everyone.

All programs are free and open to all, and make sure to check out our program schedule for updates and new programs as we move into fall.

BTP_logo_blackOn Wednesday, November 30, Boyer College of Music and Dance students will present The Music of the Great Migration: A Student Performance. The program, produced as well as performed by students, is the result of their semester-long research of the culture, music, and history of this time period. This performance marks the culmination of their hard work, creativity, and talent and will begin at 12:00 PM in the Ground Floor Lecture Hall at Paley Library.

The Music of the Great Migration: A Student Performance features musical performances by: Noah Hockner-trumpet, Silas Irvine-piano, Josh Lee-Bari sax, Chris Lewis-tenor sax, Chris Oatts-alto sax, Nathan Pence-bass, and Donavan Pope-drums.

This performance is the final event in Temple University Libraries’ programming series The Music of the Great Migration, marking the 100th anniversary of the historic and culturally important movement of 6 million African Americans to the urban Northeast, Midwest, and West. This series featured musical performances, exhibitions, and film screenings, and encouraged students, faculty, and community members to enjoy the music of the Great Migration and participate in dialogues about the notable figures and history behind the music.

 

Here’s a look back at our semester of programming:
