The Newberry A nnua l Repor t 2019–20

30 Fall/Winter 2020

Letter from the Chair and the President

Dear Friends and Supporters of the Newberry,

The Newberry’s 133rd year began with sweeping changes in leadership when Daniel Greene was appointed President and in August 2019. The year concluded in the midst of a global pandemic which mandated the closure of our building. As the Newberry staff adjusted to the abrupt change of working from home in mid-March, we quickly found innovative ways to continue engaging with our many audiences while making Chair of the Board of Trustees President and Librarian plans to safely reopen the building. The Newberry David C. Hilliard Daniel Greene responded both to the pandemic and to the civil unrest in and nationwide with creativity, energy, and dedication to advancing the library’s mission in a changed world.

Our work at the Newberry relies on gathering people together to think deeply about the humanities. Our community—including readers, scholars, students, exhibition visitors, program attendees, volunteers, and donors—brings the library’s to life through research and collaboration. After in-person gatherings became impossible, we joined together in new ways, connecting with our community online. Our popular Adult Education Seminars, for example, offered a full array of classes over Zoom this summer, and our public programs also went online. In both cases, attendance skyrocketed, and we were able to significantly expand our geographic reach.

With the Rooms closed, library staff responded to more than 450 research questions over email while working from home. The Newberry’s Institute for Research and Education also pivoted quickly to meet scholars’ needs during the building’s closure. Our long-term fellows began holding their weekly seminar online, maintaining camaraderie as they concluded their fellowships at home. After our spring 2020 undergraduate seminar on Shakespeare in art, philosophy, and politics was interrupted, Newberry staff and seminar faculty helped students from DePaul, Loyola, Roosevelt, and UIC complete their projects from home and share final presentations by video. Our research centers supported scholarly networks remotely, offering virtual reading groups, professional development seminars for academics and graduate students, and a popular video series on the history of the Black Death and other medieval epidemics.

Staff across the library participated regularly in an array of videos, livestreams, and social media activity promoting the Newberry’s collection to the public. Our Communications and Marketing Department gave audiences many creative opportunities to engage with Newberry collections and staff during the first months of the pandemic. The new “#NLfromhome” video series provided the opportunity to learn about staff members’ favorite items from the Newberry collection. “Chatting Poetic,” a new live video series on Instagram, featured staff members reflecting on poems that resonated with them during these times of crisis.

The Newberry Annual Report 31 Perhaps the most dramatic impact of the pandemic was the skyrocketing demand for Newberry digital resources. Newberry Transcribe, an interactive site where the public can transcribe handwritten letters and diaries from our collections, saw a 243% increase in usage and more than 41,000 submissions from volunteers. Our Digital Collections for the Classroom, sets of digitized primary source materials with accompanying classroom exercises for teachers, were accessed 358,853 times last year, providing much needed digital content to teachers as they transitioned to remote learning.

The pandemic had a significant impact on the library’s finances and fundraising operations as well. With in-person gatherings cancelled, the Newberry experienced a substantial decline in revenue from our event rentals program and our bookshop; postponing our 2020 Award Dinner and cancelling the July 2020 Fair further compounded our losses. To offset these losses, our Board of Trustees issued a challenge to the Newberry community in April, offering to match all gifts made to our Annual Fund up to a total of $100,000. Donors acted, contributing $216,000 before June 30. This match enabled us to exceed our Annual Fund goal, raising $1,939,509 for the year. The number of new donors to the Annual Fund—more than 450 in the last year—demonstrates that our base of support in the community continues to grow. We are grateful to all of you who made a gift to the Newberry’s Annual Fund this past year. These unrestricted funds are always critically important; they have been particularly significant during the pandemic as we maintained our operations and supported our staff.

The Annual Fund results highlighted a strong fundraising year. The Newberry raised $8,937,333 in FY20, an increase of more than $700,000 over the prior year. More than $1 million came from estate gifts, including a generous bequest from the estate of former Vice President for Research and Academic Programs, Richard H. Brown. Other notable gifts included a commitment from the National Endowment for the Humanities to fund an additional three years of our long-term fellowships program; commitments from three new major donors to support exhibitions at the library; and a new six-figure grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to make our Indigenous studies collections more accessible to tribal communities.

Operating revenues for FY20 totaled $12.46 million, with expenses of $12.37 million. On June 30, the Newberry’s investment portfolio balance stood at $76.3 million. Further details on our financial position can be found at the end of this report.

* * *

Although the pandemic occupied much of our focus during the last months of the fiscal year, it is worth remembering that the Newberry operated under regular conditions from July 2019 through mid-March 2020—or nearly 70% of service days in a typical year. Statistics for the period during which the building was open to the public suggest that we were on track to have an impressive year of service. Reader registrations of at least 3,394 readers equate to 72% of last year’s registrants. We recorded 7,642 reading room visits by 3,278 unique readers, or 79% of the visits in FY19; this average of 44 readers per day was up from 39 last year. The highest Reader Services increase was in collection presentations: 209 collection presentations to 2,890 attendees, or 82% of last year’s total. Reference inquiries totaled 6,785 in FY20, or 72% of the prior year’s.

The Department of Public Engagement also showed impressive audience figures, with programs drawing nearly 10,000 in-person attendees through March 2020. Among the department’s most notable

32 Fall/Winter 2020 accomplishments was the conclusion of the year-long project Chicago 1919: Confronting the Race Riots, which was honored with the 2020 Outstanding Public History Project Award from the National Council on Public History. The series drew more than 2,700 participants to 11 public programs and generated significant attention from the media and from Mayor Lori Lightfoot, who spoke at the Newberry’s July 2019 Bughouse Square Debates. A resounding success, Chicago 1919 will serve as a model for future collaborative efforts at the Newberry.

At the beginning of 2020, we established a new Exhibitions Department at the Newberry, in our continuing effort to diversify our audience and encourage visitors to engage with our collection. The Newberry mounted two thematic exhibitions this past year: What Is the Midwest? and Jun Fujita: American Visionary, presented in partnership with the Poetry Foundation. The pandemic forced the rescheduling of Renaissance Invention: Stradanus’s “Nova Reperta” (which you can read about in this issue of the magazine) from the spring to the fall of 2020.

The Newberry’s fellowships program continues to be a core library activity and remains highly attractive to scholars across the humanities. During FY20, 12 long-term fellows conducted research on wide- ranging topics from journalism and democracy in twentieth-century Chicago to mapmaking in early modern Venice. The total number of short-term fellowship awards increased modestly, with 44 short- term fellows in residence for sustained research in the collection. Our fellowships program remained among the most competitive in the nation, with an average of 8% of applicants accepted this year. The library’s broader service to scholars also continued apace, with 17 ongoing scholarly seminars and 66 scholars-in-residence at the Newberry.

One of the most significant accomplishments of the past year in Collections and Library Services was the migration of the online catalog’s public interface and technical infrastructure to ALMA Primo VE. Within the Newberry, the project required strong leadership and substantial effort by Collection Services staff, who addressed long-standing catalog maintenance issues, and by Reader Services staff, who created online documentation and instructional videos for readers.

The Newberry Annual Report 33 The list of new acquisitions purchased by or donated to the Newberry is too long to detail here. Some notable highlights include a 1493 copy of Cicero’s Rhetoricae ueteris, an by Troilus Zani, a printer who had not been represented in our collection; the papers of Daniel Henderson, an attorney involved in many cases on behalf of Native American tribes in the early twentieth century; materials chronicling the 1915 Eastland Disaster ship accident in Chicago; papers of , Sybil Shearer, and Eve L. Ewing; and a 2019 print portfolio, Territorio y Libertad, by a collaborative group of American and Mexican printmakers, which will be prominently featured in a 2021 exhibition on Latin American revolutions.

* * *

Although the pandemic has altered the ways we do our work, it has not prevented us from enhancing our collection, making it accessible, and using it as a basis to engage both scholars and the general public. Nor has the pandemic stopped us from looking ahead: planning is already underway for new collaborative projects on Indigenous studies and on revolutions in Latin America; for exhibitions exploring Chicago’s contributions to avant-garde art and early modern concepts of race; and for ongoing improvements to the Newberry, such as enhancing our digital infrastructure and service to the public. As we navigate our way through uncertain conditions, all of our work is guided by our shared values and institutional priorities, including:

Providing free and open access Building and sustaining communities of learning Advancing and disseminating knowledge for diverse audiences Growing and preserving the collection

Each of these pillars will continue to be tested during the pandemic and its aftermath. They will also guide us as we reaffirm our commitment to promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion at the Newberry. In response to the nationwide civil unrest following the death of George Floyd in May, the Newberry joined other Chicago cultural organizations to condemn systemic racism and express support for those who are mobilizing against it. We intend to back up our words with actions. In the coming months and years, we will engage in an institution-wide effort to become a more equitable institution of learning for all.

To emerge as a stronger Newberry at the end of this period of uncertainty, we will have to remain creative and flexible. We hope we can continue to rely on your support as we rise to meet the many challenges ahead.

Finally, after three years as Chair of the Board of Trustees, David C. Hilliard will step down in fall 2020 and be succeeded by Burton X. Rosenberg. All of us at the Newberry appreciate David’s longstanding service and dedication to the library.

Sincerely yours,

David C. Hilliard, Chair, Board of Trustees

Daniel Greene, President and Librarian
