The popular exhibit Harry Potter’s World: Renaissance Science, Magic, and Medicine is now online. The exhibit explores the link between Harry Potter and the history of science using materials from the National Library of Medicine.
Designed to travel, the exhibit was curated by Elizabeth J. Bland at NLM’s History of Medicine Division, with consultant Mark A. Waddell, PhD and contributions from Stephen Greenberg, PhD, Michael J. North, MSLS, and E. Dever Powell, MSLIS.
The American Library Associatiom (ALA) will manage the exhibit’s tour, which begins this fall. For more about hosting this fascinating exploration, visit ALA’s Harry Potter’s World Web page.
Harry Potter’s World is one of several NLM traveling exhibitions.
