See a selection of recent acquisitions that enhance key areas of our collections, including early Western manuscripts, fifteenth-century books (incunables), and the history of medicine and astronomy.

Join us (on the 6th floor of Hatcher) for Third Thursdays at the Library, a themed monthly open house where we share materials from our collections.

While you’re here, pick up a Third Thursday Passport and collect a stamp from both of this month's Third Thursday Open Houses — the Clark Library and the Special Collections Research Center — to win a prize!
