Every month on Lake Effect, we partner with the Milwaukee Public Library for our Book of the Month Series to bring you new reading recommendations. Today’s recommendations are from Sarah Finn, the Archival Projects Librarian in the Special Collections department at the Milwaukee Public Library. Finn has many roles in her job, but a key part is connecting people to the historic materials housed at the library, including in the Rare Books Room.
