Imagine holding a 16th-century amputation saw while reflecting on how surgical tools have evolved over time.
Have you ever been curious about how a lipstick tester works—and how it found its way to Duke?
You're invited to a special open house for students, faculty, and staff of the Pratt School of Engineering!
Come explore artifacts that highlight:
University Archives materials
Medical instruments
Other artifacts that reflect technological changes
Join us for an informal open house featuring fascinating items from the David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library on Duke’s West Campus.
Attendees will have the opportunity to browse materials, engage with Library staff about our collections, and create their own pin buttons.
We hope to see you there!
