Museum: Natural History Museum

Sponsor: Smithsonian Libraries

Location: Evans Gallery, Ground Floor

Thousands of species -- plant and animal -- are disappearing every year; one of the most endangered is the rhinoceros. The Smithsonian Libraries participates in a global effort dedicated to the survival of endangered species and their habitats. On display in this case are examples of books from the Libraries, most from the Russell E. Train Africana Collection, Joseph F. Cullman 3rd Library of Natural History, that support and enhance research in conservation biology.
