Color The Waring Historial Library's Collections!

The Waring is excited to announce that it is an official participant of the 2019 #ColorOurCollections campaign coordinated by The New York Academy of Medicine. From February 4th through February 8th, 2019, libraries, archives, and other cultural heritage institutions around the world highlight materials in their special collections by creating free coloring sheets. The Waring's coloring book consists of five coloring sheets, public domain items selected from the following digital collections: C. Wayne Weart Apothecary Trade Cards, 1870-1920 and the Waring Historical Library Medical Caricatures Collection.
