Dear fellow library historians:
It's time for my annual year-end collection weeding to make way for next year's purchases. I have several up-for-grab items below that I'm happy to send to whomever might want them. Please email me directly at cmediavi@ucla.edu to let me know which ones you want and where to send. Postage is on me!
Happy holidays!!
