925 N Tyndall Ave Room 100

Please join Kim Klausner, Industry Documents Digital Libraries Manager at the University of California, San Francisco Library, for a presentation on the Legacy Tobacco Document Library (LTDL). The LTDL is a free, online resource that makes 13 million tobacco industry documents available for healthcare researchers, policy advocates, journalists, and the public. The talk will specifically address tobacco industry research, but will be of interest to anyone who wants to know more about online archives as intellectual resources for promoting social change.
