When the Walls Came Tumbling Down: Coeducation in Yale College
July 22 - October 18 | Curated past University Archivist Michael Lotstein and Yale School of Fine art student Carly Sheehan '20. This exhibit has been organized in collaboration with the the 50 Women at Yale 150 commemoration.
This exhibit highlights the academic, logistical, and social challenges faced by the first women undergraduates at Yale. In September 1969, the first undergraduate women arrived at Yale College—230 women matriculated in the Class of 1973, 151 transfer students joined the Form of 1972, and 194 transfer students joined the Course of 1971. The coeducation of Yale College was the culminating event in the century- long journeying of women students at Yale. It began in 1869 with the admission of Alice and Susan Silliman, daughters of chemistry professor Benjamin Silliman, Jr. '37, into the newly established School of the Fine Arts.
To commemorate the 50th anniversary of coeducation in Yale College, the display includes photographs, memorabilia, university records, and the students' own words from their replies to questionnaires and surveys, and from written accounts of their experiences.

Pass it on: Preserving our Collective and Personal Cultural Heritage
April fifteen - July fifteen, 2019 | Curated by: Christine McCarthy, Director of the Yale Library Center for Preservation and Conservation Services with contributions from Preservation Section Staff
The Heritage Health Index, a landmark written report conducted by Heritage Preservation and the Institute of Museum and Library Services in 2004, indicated that there were over 48 one thousand thousand objects and artifacts held in public trust past over 30,000 institutions in the Us. By the survey'south all-time estimates, collectively these institutions are stewards of 270 million rare books and scrapbooks, 152 one thousand thousand photographs, iv.7 million works of art, and 189 million natural science specimens. Many of these collections were considered, at the fourth dimension of the survey, to be "at risk and [to] crave immediate attention and care."
The Yale Academy Library'southward share includes 15 million leap volumes and shut to two million photographs. Sound recordings and moving images add thousands of unique documentary and other content to that full. Digital files and their dependent software heighten the stakes exponentially for cultural heritage preservation, presenting new challenges. Caring for a collection of the size, latitude, and depth of the Yale Library may seem an impossible task, and yet information technology is the daily mission of the dedicated and talented staff of the Library's Center for Preservation and Conservation.
The showroom showcases the creative, surgical, scientific, and technological solutions executed by preservation specialists and conservation experts who have the mission to preserve and conserve. Each look inside the Center'south laboratories and workrooms is paired with at-habitation strategies to inspire visitors to make it their mission to preserve their treasures or those of their families or communities.

Selling Fume: Tobacco Advertising and Anti-Smoking Campaigns
October 29, 2018- Feb 22, 2019 | Curator: Melissa Grafe, Ph.D, with contributions from Medical Historical Library staff and students
For well over a century, the tobacco manufacture has been selling smoke in America and away: marketing the very idea of smoking with the slick and calculated use of celebrity testimonials, promises of health benefits, memorable slogans, promotional sweepstakes, and more. Selling Smoke exhibits a broad array of tobacco advertising alongside anti-smoking campaign materials, drawn from the William Van Duyn collection of magazine advertisements, ephemera, manufactures, and pamphlets related to tobacco and cigarette-smoking. Additional anti-smoking posters from the Medical Historical Library's collections represent national and international efforts to eliminate smoking worldwide.
Originally displayed in the Medical Library in 2014, the updated Selling Fume exhibition explores the complicated history of tobacco advertisement and anti-smoking campaigns.
