The Health Sciences and Human Services' (HSHSL) latest exhibit, "Groundbreaking: Spring Botanicals," features illustrations by 18th-century botanists William Woodville and William Curtis from the library's Pharmacy Historical Collection. The botanical illustrations were digitally enhanced and enlarged to highlight intricate details and vivid colors.
The volumes featured in the exhibit were donated to the library in 1940 from the estate of August Kach, a graduate of the Maryland College of Pharmacy, Class of 1882. His donation included 700 volumes, many of which remain in the library. HSHSL’s Pharmacy Historical Collection contains influential pharmacy and medical texts dating to the 17th century.
