"The food we choose to eat is part of what makes us fit in—or stand out." Hungry for something new? Stop by the third floor of Addlestone Library and feast your eyes on @CofCSpecColl's new exhibit, "Cornbread and Challah: Exploring Southern Jewish Foodways."
The reading room will be closed tomorrow in anticipation of severe weather.
Happy New Year! 🎇🍾 The Special Collections reading room has resumed our normal hours, Monday through Friday from 9am-12pm and 1pm-4pm. See you soon!
Special Collections will close for winter break at noon on Wednesday, December 20th. We will reopen at 9am on Tuesday, January 2nd.
Tonight marks the first night of Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights. This image from the William A. Rosenthall Judaica Collection depicts the lighting of the menorah. Happy Hanukkah! 🕎
Thanksgiving leftovers got you feeling peckish? Feast your eyes on the newest exhibit in Special Collections, "Cornbread and Challah: Exploring Southern Jewish Foodways." Learn about the relationship between traditional European Jewish and Southern cuisines in the Lowcountry.
The Special Collections reading room will close today at noon for the Thanksgiving holiday. 🦃🥧🍴 See you Monday!
Today is #NationalPickleDay which is, apparently, a big dill. (Get it?) In the mood to make your own? Try one of these recipes from The Sandlapper Cookbook, published in 1973.
These journal entries from Edwin Pearlstine’s time “Over There” during the First World War were written only a few months apart. The first entry was written just after his arrival in Europe in the spring of 1918 & the second shortly after his time on the Ypres Front. #VeteransDay
When this sketch was created in 1886, Charleston was only a few months away from what would be one of the most devastating earthquakes to ever hit the East Coast. Today, the intersection of East & South Battery looks much like it did 137 years ago, minus the cars and tourists!
Looking for Wednesday night plans? Special Collections' Harlan Greene is speaking tomorrow as part of the Charleston Literary Festival on the theme of hidden histories including his new book, "The Real Rainbow Row." Grab tickets here: tinyurl.com/3vpfyvtc
Happy #FashionFriday! Fannie Strauss sent this postcard of herself posing in a fashionable striped dress to H. Pearlstine in 1911. The back of the card reads "Just to show that I am still alive."

Hungry for something new? Stop by the third floor of Addlestone and feast your eyes on our newest exhibit, “Cornbread and Challah: Exploring Southern Jewish Foodways.” This exhibit uses food as a lens to explore the relationship between European Jewish and Southern cultures.

Tomorrow afternoon, the Carolina Lowcountry and Atlantic World will present a discussion with Kathryn Braund. After the talk, head up to Special Collections to view a first edition of William Bartram’s “Travels” describing his journey through the American South from 1773 to 1777.
Archivists Mary Jo Fairchild & Aaisha Haykal welcomed WGST students to our reading room this week to engage with documents from the aftermath of the Vesey Rebellion using a critical, Black feminist lens. We're proud to educate 500-700 students yearly in the archive! ✏️📜📚
Happy New Year! Tonight marks the beginning of #RoshHashanah. The William A. Rosenthall Judaica Collection includes several hundred holiday cards, including these colorful examples.
