The Ward M. Canaday Center for Special Collections preserves a small collection of materials that document aspects of the life of James S. Brady, former press secretary to President Reagan, who passed away this week.  The collection includes speeches, articles, correspondence, and photographs of Brady during his tenure as vice chair of the National Organization on Disability.  Brady was severely injured during the assassination attempt on President Reagan’s life in 1981.  The complete guide to the collection can be found at:

The Banned Books Event this year will be held on the 5th floor of Carlson Library. Due to the talks and activities, UT Libraries would like to suggest using the other floors for quiet study and research. We hope you can join us in celebrating the freedom to read, think, and write: URL: http://libguides.utoledo.edu/bannedbooks
