250 years of Jane Austen
Kelvin Smith Library, Special Collections, Hatch Reading Room, 2nd Floor
2025 is a celebration of 250 years of Jane Austen! KSL recognizes this momentous year with the exhibit Jane Austen's Library. The exhibit showcases 18th and 19th century books and manuscripts drawn from the library's extensive rare book collection. Visitors will have the opportunity to see early editions and other significant works from Jane Austen's theoretical library - what would likely have appeared on her bookshelf! The exhibit runs through May 29th.
