Excellent piece by @AllisonHanes in today's @mtlgazette highlighting our current exhibit, "How to transform black and white incunabula into luxury items." The voices included highlight our strong ties to @AmericanOsler.

✨ In Montréal, Amb. @Aless_Cattaneo and Prof. Mario Venezia visited the remarkable exhibition of 🇮🇹 Venetian incunabula at @OslerLibrary.
Our heartfelt thanks to Prof. @RFDelMaestro, his colleagues, and the exhibit’s curator Professor Dunn-Lardeau for their dedicated work.
Rather than the view from our library, here is the view over our library! See the McIntyre Medical Sciences Building in the lower left part of the photo.

Congratulations to Hélène Cazes, Viviane Fairbank, & Magdalena Koźluk on a fine issue:

We teach because we love teaching, but wow, sometimes a prof will totally spoil us in appreciation. Thank you! And thank you for lending us your students for a few hours this week.

The removal of the Black model from US editions of Maclise makes for a teachable moment when classes visit.
