Ebling Library, 3rd Floor Gallery

"Pieces of Me," an exhibition of paper collage and watercolors by Yan Xu, will be on display in the 3rd floor Ebling gallery from May 6th through June 18, 2009.

These gorgeous, ethereal works feature women, horses, cats and birds (even penguins). Three of the paper collages feature an "ex libris" motif. These are lovely, affordable, and evoke a decidedly "Spring" feeling. Yan Xu's mother, Yongjing handmade most of the golden and black frames.

Pharmaceuticals & Pharmacists: The Evolving Relationship

Guest curated by the American Institute for the History of Pharmacy

October 1st through November 30th, 2008

Drugs and druggists go hand-in-hand in the mind of the public. By the early 1800s, pharmaceutists were manufacturing ingredients to be compounded into prescriptions. During the late 1900s, large companies came to dominate the production of medicines while pharmacists took on greater responsibility for their proper use. This exhibit explores this historical partnership by looking at how medicine production, regulation, and marketing have changed over time in parallel with the development of the pharmacy profession.
