Dick and Jane and Vampires. Found by Library Programming Assistant Carol Raby, while searching for materials to read to Children’s Center kids for story time. While this did not make the cut for 4-year-olds, it was not for lack of awesomeness.

Found by student worker Julia Guanzon ‘17, while sorting postcards for her job in Archives and Special Collections.

Julia was struck by the remarkable architecture in this vintage postcard of the Mission Inn in Riverside, CA, and thought it worthy of a submission to Found. We agree!
