Plants: Cultivators of Curiosity - Conclusion

We hope you enjoyed your virtual visit to the Augustana College Special Collections reading room.  When our campus re-opens, we invite you to visit us in person in Rock Island, Illinois!  If you don't catch this exhibit before it is replaced with another, you can always request to see any of the items using the identification information included in the virtual exhibit.

Special Collections staff would like to thank all of our hardworking student workers for everything they do to keep our collections in tip-top shape.  We would especially like to thank Jessica Beyer for her many hours of research and planning for this exhibit.  If you enjoyed our exhibit, we would love it if you sent us a note via email (specialcollections@augustana.edu) to let us know!
