We're giving you a preview of our upcoming exhibition, "Waste Not: Preservation at Play," which opens on June 20! Pequot Library’s Special Collections contain many examples of bindings created from reused materials, including vellum manuscripts, wallpaper, newspapers, and handwritten paper documents. Other books in the collection serve purposes not originally intended, used by their owners as scrapbooks or to press and preserve botanical specimens—some of which are now considered endangered. Inspired by the summer 2024 reading theme, “Read, Renew, Repeat,” Waste Not examines the ways that book creators and owners have reused materials available to them, made their own “folk repairs,” or given new purpose to books. Come view a diverse selection of Special Collections books dating back to 1570, while considering the value of re-use and preservation of resources in a culture built on disposability.

“Pottery is made from the earth and by hand, just like our food. It evokes a connection to our lives that plastic just doesn’t convey. There is not only the connection to the earth but also to the maker that offers an intimacy which is often lacking in our fast-paced digitized world of today. It tells our history and our progress as humans. I believe pottery will always have a place in society. After all, it is art that differentiates humans from other creatures.” - Susie Bowman Learn more about Mobile Bay’s historical connection to pottery in the full article from CURRENTS https://lnkd.in/gyYZCi72
