Pittsburgh was selected to join cities worldwide on Google Arts & Culture, and the library is helping to tell Pittsburgh's story

The ULS was recently awarded $200,000 by the Heinz Endowments to support the acquisition of the August Wilson Archive, as well as community outreach and engagement with the Collection. The materials document a wide array of Wilson’s career and interests from the 1960s to 2010s. Included are materials from his American Century Cycle plays, artwork, poetry, and more.
