To commemorate the 40th anniversary of the quelling of the reform uprisings in Prague, Czechoslovakia, please visit The Soviet Invasion of Czechoslovakia: August 1968. The exhibit, curated in 2000 by former Michigan librarian Brian Rosenblum, explores the tumultuous events of 1968, drawing on the rich resources of the Labadie Collection to illustrate the heady days of "Prague Spring" followed by the military suppression by Soviet and Warsaw Pact troops on August 21, 1968.
