Ruby Canton Collection
The Ruby Canton Collection is named in honor of a beloved Librarian who worked in the library from 1908-1928 when UCO was Central State Teachers' College.
Ruby Canton's private library comprised the first titles in the collection. New titles are selected by library staff and focus on high-quality current leisure reading. This list is updated once each month.
