For today's #ThrowbackThursday, the SSU Library is featuring items highlighting Sonoma County's long history as destination for those wanting to get away from it all and enjoy time in our natural beauty, in honor of #NationalTravelandTourismWeek . These materials are housed in several different Special Collections, including the Gaye LeBaron Collection, the John Schubert Russian River Collection, and the Sonoma County Agriculture, Land Use, and Tourism Collection.
You can learn more about the library's Special Collections here: https://library.sonoma.edu/research/specialcollections/our-collections.

As we close out a week dedicated to highlighting the fantastic work created by Sonoma State students and faculty, the library wants to draw your attention to our institutional repository, ScholarWorks, a growing home for SSU research. While it currently features a strong collection of graduate theses, it also includes selected faculty work, and we're actively working to expand it.
Importantly, ScholarWorks provides a pathway to making SSU research more visible and accessible to the local communities the campus serves as well as a global audience. Check it out today: https://scholarworks.calstate.edu/
As Sonoma State tonight hosts its annual Take Back the Night event to raise awareness surrounding sexual assault, domestic violence, and rape culture, we wanted to share these images from the April 20, 1999, 'Sonoma State Star' to highlight the history of SSU's efforts. According to the library's University Archives, the university first held a Take Back the Night event in 1994.
This evening's event will be held 6-8 p.m. at The Hub and is sponsored by the Counseling and Psychological Services and Confidential Advocacy offices.
