Quote of the day
"Music and dancing (the more the pity) have become so closely associated with ideas of riot and debauchery among the less cultivated classes, that a taste for them, for their own sakes, can hardly be said to exist, and before they can be recommended as innocent or safe amusements, a very great change of ideas must take place." ~ Sir John Herschel
Racist material:
Our library holds material that includes racist language, ideas, and images. We retain such items so as not to falsify the historical record. In order to bring about meaningful change in the present, we must learn from the wrongs of the past; historical writing and objects are important in this process. We are working to flag this material by putting a statement in the item notes on the catalogue record. We value the input of all current and potential users into our process of reassessing our collection. If you have any comments, questions, or concerns, please contact a member of staff.
