 n unlikely group of librarians\, archivists\, and scholars came together d
 uring World War II\, their war effort centered on collecting books and doc
 uments. They gathered enemy publications in the spy-ridden cities of Stock
 holm and Lisbon\, searched for records in liberated Paris and the rubble o
 f Berlin\, seized Nazi works from bookstores and schools\, and unearthed m
 illions of books hidden in German caves and mineshafts.&nbsp\; Improvising
  library techniques in wartime conditions\, they contributed to Allied int
 elligence\, safeguarded endangered collections\, restituted looted books&m
 dash\;and built up the international holdings of leading American librarie
 s in the postwar period.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>In this talk\, Kathy Peiss offers 
 a historical perspective on the uses of books and information in times of 
 war and peace.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>At the conclusion of the program please feel
