This week we’ve been reflecting on how far we’ve come in the past few months. In April the restoration of the Carnegie Library was essentially completed, we opened three exhibits and a new retail store in May, the Kiplinger Research Library reopened in August, and now we are bringing back home the rest of our collections that were in storage during our year in transition. 

In previous blog posts, we described the process of relocating over 5,000 boxes of collections materials. Now, to show you what that looks like, here is a gallery of behind-the-scenes photos from the collections move, records of how we produced the exhibits, and the continued repatriation of collections to the Kiplinger Research Library.
