The Consortium is delighted to welcome the University of Pittsburgh as our 40th member institution, working together to advance scholarship and promote public understanding of the history of science, technology and medicine.
The University of Pittsburgh Library System's holdings include over 7 million items in the circulating collection and around 100,000 special collections items comprised of incunabula, rare books, documents, maps, prints, and other media. The Archives and Special Collections department has particularly rich holdings in the history of twentieth-century philosophy of science, twentieth-century medicine, late-nineteenth century astronomy, and rare books in early-modern natural philosophy.
We look forward to working with our new colleagues at the University of Pittsburgh.
