Last week, Yale University, one of the partners in the MHL, announced it would be offering open access to images of many of the items in its museums, libraries, and special collections via a new website: Discover Yale Digital Commons.
Researchers can browse the collections — which include Historical Scientific Instruments — or search for something specific.
For more on the new Yale initiative, see coverage at DigitalKoans, Ten Thousand Year Blog, the Chronicle of Higher Education’s QuickWire or Boston.com.
The MHL is pleased to be in such a fine and growing group of online projects.
As always, for more from the Medical Heritage Library, please visit our full collection!
