Cover story: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was published 150 years ago this December. Items within the Newberry collection illustrate the wildly different ways in which the beloved book has resonated with audiences and permeated literary and popular culture over the last century and a half. Also in this issue: A new web portal provides unprecedented access to the Chicago-related archives of cultural institutions across the city; the Newberry welcomes three new senior-staff members to its team; and a Newberry exhibition raises the curtain on Chicago's theater-crazed roots.
