The W Store has officially launched a limited-edition UW Retro Collection in collaboration with University Relations, Alumni Relations, and the Library. The collection is a nod to vintage school attire, featuring the "UW" lettering for a touch of nostalgia.
To make the launch a success, archivist Nicole Marcogliese and Library Communications worked closely with the W Store team to curate a display of vintage clothing in the W Store windows, select archival images for in-store and online promotions, write stories, and design in-store graphics. This collaboration was an exciting opportunity for the Library to develop new partnerships with campus stakeholders and showcase our unique resources.
You can find additional information about the collection in the Daily Bulletin or visit South Campus Hall to view the display and clothing items firsthand!
