Reporter Morgan Sturm provides details of Shaw's efforts to expand collections after joining the campus community in 1985.
Shaw preserved the history of the college and focused attention on the collection of artist’s books, rare books, manuscripts and anti-slavery works. Shaw is also praised for her work on the Marquis de Lafayette Collection.
Consider visiting Lafayette's Special Collections & Archives web pages that contain an extensive array of resources and digital exhibits. The College Archives documents and familiarizes visitors with the history of Lafayette College from its founding in 1824 to the present day. Lafayette also partners with Archive-It to provide public access to resources through the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.
