520    On May 1, 1893, the World's Columbian Exposition in 
       Chicago opened its gates to an expectant public eager to 
       experience firsthand its architectural beauty, 
       technological marvels, and vast array of cultural 
       treasures gathered from all over the world. Among the most
       popular of the fair's attractions was the Woman's Building,
       a monumental exhibit hall filled with the products of 
       women's labor--including more than 8,000 volumes of 
       writing by women. Right Here I See My Own Books examines 
       the progress, content, and significance of this historic 
       first effort to assemble a comprehensive library of 
       women's texts. By weaving together the behind-the-scenes 
       story of the library's formation and the stories between 
       the covers of books on display, Wadsworth and Wiegand 
       firmly situate the Woman's Building Library within the 
       historical context of the 1890s. Interdisciplinary in 
       approach, their book demonstrates how this landmark 
       collection helped consolidate and institutionalize women's
       writing in conjunction with the burgeoning women's 
       movement and the professionalization of librarianship in 
       late nineteenth-century America. Americans in this period 
       debated a wide range of topics, including women's rights, 
       gender identity, racial politics, nationalism, regionalism,
       imperialism, and modernity. These debates permeated the 
       cultural climate of the Columbian Exposition. Wadsworth 
       and Wiegand's book illuminates the range and complexity of
       American women's responses to these issues within a public
       sphere to which the Woman's Building provided 
       unprecedented access.
