An opportunity to see some treasures from the Whipple Library rare book collection, featuring some of the earliest Western scientific books, works by Darwin, Galileo, Newton and more, and (possibly) the smallest scientific book ever printed… This event will take place in the Whipple Library. The main entrance is on Free School Lane; step-free access is available from the New Museums Site.
