New guide alert! Along with @IHRCA_UMN & the Social Welfare History Archives here at @umnlib, we've helped create a guide that points to #pandemic and #epidemic related materials in our collections! A significant portion points to online material. libguides.umn.edu/ASCpandemics
165 yrs ago today, the #YMCA concluded its 1st World Conference in Paris, France, attended by delegates from Ys from 9 countries. Today the Y is in 120 countries! In 1955, Harold W. McCoo led group singing at the 100th anniversary World Conference (photo: purl.umn.edu/77240)
YMCA staff, volunteers, retirees: We are seeking your personal stories about how the coronavirus pandemic has affected you, your Y, and your community. lib.umn.edu/ymca/covid19 #YCOVID19Stories
How are you celebrating #EarthDay50 ? This photo from about 100 yrs ago shows boys studying trees at a Y camp in the mountains of Nanjing, China (purl.umn.edu/97870)
@IHRCA_UMN Sorry about the delayed response. Unfortunately, it appears we don't have the film (wish we did!), but we may have other helpful info on Americanization work. @straumanis please email us at [email protected]

It's #AskAnArchivist Day on Twitter, and we're here to answer your questions about archives in general or the YMCA Archives in particular. (Photo: purl.umn.edu/127479)
#InternationalCatsDay probably does not make you think of the #YMCA, but it turns out we do have at least one relevant item in our collection of photos of YMCA work in China. purl.umn.edu/242174
@umnpts is the Campus Connector on a different route today? Can't find any info on pts.umn.edu or your Twitter feed, but it seems that buses are on different route than usual in St. Paul...
Did you learn to swim at the #YMCA? Hopefully you had more head clearance at your pool than these mid-20th century kids in Newark, NJ #ArchivesPoolParty (purl.umn.edu/77264)
