Established in 1955, the Department of Rare Books and Special Collections is the unit responsible for providing library services and public access to the largest holdings of rare books and special collections in Canada. This anniversary exhibition features a selection of seventy items recently used in research, teaching, and learning at the Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library. The exhibition and catalogue are inspired by moments of discovery and creativity in the seminar room, reference desk, and reading room.
Exhibition and catalogue organized by David Fernández, with contributions from RBSC staff.
