Abstract Born out of an institutional desire to build library usership, court donors, and promote rare book research, librarians initiated special collections research at The Ringling Museum. In the fall of 2013, they began studying the personal library of John Ringling, the museum founder. The ultimate goal of this project was the creation of substantive public programming that would amplify the librarys profile in the community while providing a historical narrative that would accompany that hidden special collection. The added exposure to these collections was also meant to grow the Friends of the Library group and boost daily statistics. This article demonstrates how programming, in so many ways, is the best form of special collections education and should be considered a valuable addition to a librarys mission.
