Scholar Laura Lovett spent the summer of 2013 at Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) working on the launch of the MBL History Project project, specifically researching practicalities of Woods Hole life which enabled women scientists to do their work and raise their families.

The heath hen (Tympanuchus cupido cupido) was declared extinct in 1932. "The Last Heath Hen" (1930), published in the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) "The Collecting Net" newspaper, documents the last individual of the species. MBLWHOI Library shares more on our blog. ➡️ s.si.edu/2QjYSv9

Sometimes libraries are the sole holding institution for a paper printed work of science literature. Loss of such knowledge would indeed be a loss. We work with consortia like Boston Library Consortium #EAST #printretention as you can’t build historical digital libraries without paper first.
