day 60 of 365

I visited the Countway Library of Medicine at Harvard Medical School in Boston, and they have some very unique exhibits highlighting the history of medicine. In celebration of day 60, I thought that you might enjoy some leeches.

  2. Who doesn't enjoy leeches!?! I am off to check out your other blog. I didn't realize you were a library director. I worked in libraries for years, corporate and university and love libraries & research. Everyone's practically been laid off now. I'm on goodreads. Do you use it?
