Flash Mob! NCSU Libraries Storm Raleigh's Oldest House
The Joel Lane House Museum in Raleigh, North Carolina, is a carefully preserved testament to the man who was instrumental in creating much of the early history of this now-flourishing region of the country.
But until March 23, a key part of that history was lost to most of us until a group of volunteers from the North Carolina State University Libraries descended on the oldest house in Raleigh.
In a decidedly non-traditional manner, they flash mobbed the 232 books that the Museum has collected but has never been able to make widely available in a systematic way to historians and to members of the community who are interested in the history of the colonial period.
