Learn more about the display at Dykes Library from public
services assistant and display creator, Christina:
April was National Poetry Month and, although I was a little
late getting the display up, the Being Human medicine and poetry display
is now finished. I have seen several students looking at the displayed materials
(we even checked out one of the books yesterday) and the “magnetic” poetry
board has been put to use. The display has materials from both Dykes Library stacks and Clendening, as well as articles from PubMed
that discuss the validity of poetry in a medical practice. Each of the books
should have either a Clendening bookmark, or a bookmark showcasing “Aphasia,” a
poem by Noah Capurso for the Yale UCL Medical Students Poetry Competition.
Hopefully this is the first of many interesting displays, as we plan on
rotating them throughout the year.
Be sure to check it out today!
