The Library & Museum at the American Philosophical Society and the Linda Hall Library are excited to collaborate on a series of COVID-Calls focused on what library and archival materials in the history of science, technology, and medicine can teach us about COVID-19.
COVID-Calls is a daily discussion series about the COVID-19 pandemic featuring a range of experts hosted by Scott Gabriel Knowles, Professor at Drexel University. New episodes are streamed live Monday through Friday; past episodes may be watched online via YouTube or downloaded as podcasts. Visit the COVID-Calls website to learn more and to catch up on past discussions.
Join us on February 3, 4, and 5 for conversations featuring Lisa Browar, President of Linda Hall Library and Patrick Spero, Librarian & Director of the Library & Museum at the American Philosophical Society, as well as historians of science and research fellows as they reflect on the impact of COVID-19 on their scholarship.
