World War II and its Aftermath: New Acquisitions in the Valente Collection

Italy entered World War II in 1940; by its end, in 1945, several hundred thousands of Italians had lost their lives and many of Italy’s towns and cities were in ruins. This tumultuous period of Italian history is documented in the numerous personal narratives, pictorial works and historical accounts that recently have been acquired as part of the Valente Italian collection, located on the third floor of Walsh library. The Valente Collection is open to all researchers, who wish to consult its extensive print resources. Most materials can be borrowed by the Seton Hall community, those individuals with a Rebl card, and faculty in the Vale Academic Library Consortium. It is open during the library’s normal working hours.

The study examines how and why readers obtain the scholarly materials they need, and what outcomes result from reading.  Invitations to complete the surveys were recently emailed to all Seton Hall faculty and students.

If you did not receive or have misplaced your email invitation and would like to participate in the survey, please e-mail Lisa.Rose-Wiles@shu.edu.  Your participation will be greatly appreciated.

You may exit the survey or leave a question unanswered at any time. There is minimal risk attached to your participation. Any details about you, your work situation, and your organization will be kept completely confidential. Survey results will be kept under password protection for three years following the survey. Any papers or conference presentations based on the collected data will contain only summary data without direct links to an individual survey response.
