New Exhibit on Display

If you've got time to spare, waiting for a seminar or something else, please drop by the Plant Pathology Library! We've got a new exhibit on display called "Medicinal Fungi: The Healing Mushrooms." The exhibit was researched and designed by the Plant Pathology Library student workers, Alli and Kelsey, and features books from the library's collection of medicinal fungi books. Thanks, ladies!
