Prof. Hsiao-Yun Chu has been awarded a research travel grant from Duke University to support her research into women's late 19th century craft culture. "The Sallie Bingham Center at Duke University Libraries has world-class collections to support my research," notes Prof. Chu. "Primary sources are the raw materials of design history.  This grant will allow me to consult rare and one-of-a-kind resources to bring new scholarship to light."
