A Lourdes University professor and a local librarian collaborated recently on two projects related to veterans.
Lourdes University professor Holly Baumgartner and Amy Hartman, formerly adult services librarian at the Sylvania Branch Library, created a series of veteran’s writing workshops co-hosted by Lourdes and the library.
They collected the stories into a book, “In Our Boots,” which chronicles the experiences of veterans who served in Iraq, Korea, Vietnam and World War II, according to a news release.
The book is available at the Main Toledo-Lucas County Public Library andSylvania branch and has also been submitted as one of the many memorialized artifacts in the U.S. Army War College Library and U.S. Army Heritage & Educational Center.
