It’s National Library Week!
We’re celebrating with exhibits, activities, and experiences that bring our collections in the history of science and medicine to light.
Join our curators and librarians for a fun after-hours event in the Othmer Library’s reading room where you’ll have the opportunity to
- see unexpected treasures not usually on display
- make a craft to take home
- support the library by adopting collection items
- and much more!
Admission is free, and registration is required.
