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.
