Connecting with the Eartha M. M. White Collection


The Eartha M. M. White Collection is the cornerstone of UNF’s Special Collections, being both the first collection obtained by the University in 1975 and consistently the most widely used. Over the past 50 years students from many majors have used the Eartha M. M. White Collection for projects and research, and it has brought faculty together across disciplinary lines. The collection is revered throughout the region and is continuing to help build ties between UNF and the Jacksonville community.


Please join us in exploring some of these relationships at the panel discussion “Connecting with the Eartha M. M. White Collection” on Wednesday, February 15, 2023, 12:30-1:30pm. The event is sponsored by the Thomas G. Carpenter Library, the UNF Africana Studies Program, and UNF’s Digital Humanities Institute (DHI) and will be held in the Library’s Special Collections Reading Room on the first floor. Reservations are not required.


One of the panelists at this event will be International Studies major Nur Chodry, a 2023 DHI Student Fellow who is working this semester to help digitize material from the Eartha M. M. White Collection.
