Back in 2009, Peter Bietenholz, Professor Emeritus
of History at the University of Saskatchewan, and his wife Doris donated their rare books to the Murray Library.
Under the supervision of Special Collections Librarian David Bindle, a McGill MLIS student, Nina Thurlow (B.A. Hons. in CMRS) catalogued the collection as her summer practicum project.
You can check out the collection by visiting the website (http://library2.usask.ca/bietenholz) and, if you want to take a look at any of the books, you can visit the Special Collections Library. The Bietenholz Rare Book Collection is a significant addition to the U of S Special
Collections and will prove a valuable resource for students, faculty and visiting researchers alike.
