While in-person visits to the library have been on hold, curators at the Kislak Center have been hard at work obtaining new and exciting items for the collection. From a tenth-century Greek scroll to 20th-century works by photographer Arthur Tress, many exciting new items have been added to our collections over the past 18 months. Drop-in to the Kislak Center’s Orrery Pavilion to get a first-hand look at some of these fascinating new arrivals.
