Special collections could be an integral part of many presentations that deal with history, since it deals with past artifacts. Using sources outside of Academia such as letters, photographs, diaries, and other physical objects brings a personal touch to what you’re presenting. I knew the library contains artifacts but I did not know that contain that many. I enjoyed the presentation.
For my research on free trade, I could give photographs of rust belt cities that became industrialized over the past 3 decades particularly Detroit, M and Gary, Indiana. I could also give pictures of sweatshops in Asia and Mexico as well as the amount of smog in the air due to the low regulatory standards in these regions. I could interview a former factory to get an insight to how his life was like during and after the plant closed down if that would be considered a ‘special collection’.
