Join the ASU Library for Archives Wednesday, an open house inside Hayden Library’s Wurzburger Reading Room. 

At this month’s event, explore selections from the IsraPulp Collection, a one-of-a-kind research collection of Hebrew popular literature and pulps created since the 1930s (bulk 1950s to 1960s) with Rachel Leket-Mor, the collection curator and ASU Library open stack collections curator. Take a close look at a unique selection of Israeli pulp fiction, which includes rare books and serialized pamphlets (booklets) in a wide range of genres, from Westerns and romance to crime novels and science fiction. 

ASU Library’s archival and distinctive collections feature rare books, manuscripts, photographs, prints, historical newspapers, architectural drawings, ASU history and much more. Bring a friend and stop by to discover rare and unique materials that will delight and inspire you.
