Among the items on display are: a watercolor “portrait” of a railroad bridge built in Prague in 1850\, original artwork by local artist Tom Pohrt for a children's book written by Justice Sandra Day O'Connor\, a diary and photographs from a female UM student who hitchhiked from Ann Arbor to San Francisco in 1923\, a Spanish text from 1693 for those studying to be soldiers\, and Dante's Divine Comedy with illustrations by Salvador Dali. \n\nNew archival collections with samples on display include the papers of film director Robert Altman and writers Nicholas Delbanco and Richard Tillinghast\, as well as four separate women involved in radical causes such as Clarence Darrow's 1907 defense of union leaders accused of murder and the ecological costs of technology. This is the first opportunity for the public to see materials from the Altman Collection\, which is estimated to be 1\,000 linear feet in size and is now being sorted and processed for use.

In June of 1944\, an exceptional U.S. Army unit went into action in Normandy. Its weapons included hundreds of inflatable tanks and a one-of-a-kind collection of sound effects records\, and it carried out its battlefield mission without firing a shot. The unit was officially called the 23rd Headquarters Special Troops\, but it was known to its men as The Ghost Army.\n\nMembers of The Ghost Army adhered to a decades-long gag order\; many never told their families about their extraordinary military service. Sixty-five years after this top-secret group went into action\, the University of Michigan's Hatcher Library will unveil the first public exhibit of this captivating group of materials documenting The Ghost Army. \n\nThis exhibit is available during library hours.

The fossil has proven to be a “link” between the prosimian and simian (\"anthropoid\") primate lineages. It has \"advanced\" front teeth (incisors and canines) and second toes like those of monkeys\, and is broadly representative of what human primate ancestors may have looked like during the Eocene epoch 47 million years ago. Ida (prounded \"eeda\") is named after after the daughter of Dr Jørn Hurum\, the Norwegian vertebrate paleontologist who secured one section of the fossil from an anonymous owner\, and led the research. Ida was about eight months old\, or the equivalent of a six-year-old human. Publication of a paper on the discovery was accompanied by a book\, The Link: Uncovering Our Earliest Ancestors by Colin Tudge\, and a documentary shown on the History Channel (US)\, BBC One (UK)\,and various stations in Germany and Norway. U-M paleontologist Philip Gingerich and U-M anthropologist B. Holly Smith were two members of the \"dream team\" invited to study Ida. The exhibit will be on display through May 2010.

He gathers raw data in his excavations\, and records his findings using a wholly unique and modern process and method that he intuitively formulates as he goes along. In his ongoing study of a city so rooted in a dense past\, and the emotional attachments that accompany it\, Hocking is uncompromising and unflinching\, and refuses to buy into the hype. His visual essays chronicling urban markings of modern day ruin are not the stuff of tragedy or fodder for magazine centerfolds\, but proof of a renaissance in real time. Hocking's work is fully alive\, and honors the world going past and us moving forward along with it\, exhilarated by industrial parks returning to fallow land\, and strawberry bushes growing in the cracked concrete.
