Prim Library Community Events

Talks@Tahoe is the University of Nevada, Reno at Lake Tahoe’s premier speaker series hosted in the Prim Library.  If you missed our recent Talks@Tahoe, Preserving Data: The Legacy Mt. Rose Snow Science Research of James Church with Universities Libraries’ Tara Radniecki, Associate Professor, Head of DeLaMare Science and Engineering Library, you are in luck. Due to inclement weather, the event was postponed and will be rescheduled. Check out our Talks@Tahoe webpage or follow us on social media (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter) to learn when.

Can’t wait for the James Church and Snow Science talk? The University Libraries is proud is offer an online exhibit, Nature and Man: The Warm Philosophy of Dr. James Edward Church, available now.  Those interested in learning more about the legacy of James E. Church are invited to visit the Mathewson-IGT Knowledge Center on the Reno main campus to view and experience the new exhibit on display outside of Special Collections and University Archives (third floor).
