This year's theme is People Saving Places was selected in appreciation of "historic place-savers...[who, put their] time, energy, and resources into protecting places they care about, often without recognition."

"Preserving Our Past: People Saving Places" is a digital exhibit designed to draw attention to the cultural resources of the Rio Grande Valley using University Library digital platforms and Special Collections & Archives (SCA) resources.
