This borough-wide archiving campaign, initiated by ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ Library and Queens Public Library, will collect first person stories and documentation of life in the epicenter of the pandemic. The public can submit testimony, photographs, and documents , powered by our tech partner, the Urban Archive.

It will become a permanent archive, open to researchers.

In addition to collaborating on the borough-wide outreach campaign, archivists at the Rosenthal Library are conducting long-form interviews with ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ faculty, staff, and students, to ensure that our unique perspectives are recorded.
