  • Featuring Historical Textbooks to Build Knowledge of University History Rathe, Bette Lowell, Kay Undergraduate Students Textbooks Early Reading Library Services Reading Instruction College Faculty Higher Education Teacher Education Archives Library Materials History Libraries Academic Libraries Evaluation Undergraduate students at a teacher education institution, the University of Northern Colorado, are the target audience for an exhibit of a reading series from the Libraries' Archival Services collections. The display highlights an important era in the university's history involving four faculty members: Paul McKee, M. Lucile Harrison, Annie McCowen, and Elizabeth Lehr. These professors developed an innovative approach to early reading instruction that was incorporated into their reading textbook series during a time of uniformity in reading textbooks. The rationale for the display was based on research about the "Reading for Meaning" series discussed in this article.
