An Upcoming Acquisition

I thought you might like to know of some exciting news! We are about to take possession of book collections from three of our most notable members.

Several decades ago, MedChi deaccessioned a large number of items to the Maryland Historical Society (now the Maryland Center for History & Culture – MCHC) so that they would be more accessible to the general public. They are currently winnowing their collections to focus solely on Maryland-related items. While Scott, Archer and Osler were connected to Maryland, most of the books in their collections are medical tomes. MCHC gave us the right of first refusal, and how could we ever refuse when we found out what they had!
