\"8.<\/a>From the Archivist’s Perspective: <\/b>Feature Columns and Articles by Peter Knapp in the Trinity Reporter<\/i>, 1976-2012<\/b><\/p>\n

The Watkinson Library and Trinity College plan to publish a volume honoring the retirement of College Archivist Peter Knapp, which will occur on August 29, 2014.\u00a0 Mr. Knapp is himself a Trinity institution. Graduating with the Class of 1965, he received his M.A. in History from the University of Rochester and a Master’s in Library Science from Columbia University. He was hired by the Trinity College Library in 1968 as Head of Reference.<\/p>\n

In 1972 Mr. Knapp also took on the development of the College Archives, and soon began writing articles on Trinity’s history for the Reporter<\/em>.\u00a0 He would ultimately collaborate with his wife, Anne H. Knapp, to produce Trinity College in the Twentieth Century: A History<\/em> (2000), intended as a second volume to Glen Weaver’s 1967 History of Trinity College<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The prospective publication of 40 short essays concerning Trinity history that Mr. Knapp wrote for the Trinity Reporter,<\/i> including a few <\/b>excerpts from Peter\u2019s book-length study, also includes one original contribution never before published, on Trinity men who served in the Civil War (on both sides!).
