Harry Potter's World: Renaissance Science, Magic, and Medicine



The Seward County Community College Library is proud to present the exhibition Harry Potter’s World: Renaissance Science, Magic, and Medicine.

The six-panel exhibition explores the world of Harry Potter and its roots in Renaissance magic, science, and medicine. Among the sections covered are potions, immortality, fantastic beasts, monsters, magical creatures and herbology.

In 1997, British author J. K. Rowling introduced the world to Harry Potter and a literary phenomenon was born. Millions of readers have followed Harry to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry where he discovers his heritage, encounters new plants and animals, and perfects his magical abilities.

Although a fantasy story, the magic in the Harry Potter books is partially based on Renaissance traditions that played an important role in the development of Western science, including alchemy, astrology, and natural philosophy.

The exhibition, which is brought to you by the National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health, runs from Monday, November 21 through Friday, January 6 and is open during library hours. It is free and open to the public.

For more information, contact the SCCC Library at (620) 417-1160.

Frederick Douglass from Slavery to Freedom: The Journey to New York City

The Seward County Community College/Area Technical School Library is proud to host the national traveling exhibition Frederick Douglass from Slavery to Freedom: The Journey to New York City, beginning February 1. The exhibition will be on display through the entire month of February, which is Black History Month.

The exhibition explores the youth of Frederick Douglass, born a slave in Maryland in 1818, who after his escape to New York in 1838 became one of the most famous men in nineteenth-century America. Douglass fought to end slavery and championed civil rights for all Americans. His autobiography, published in 1845, was a powerful weapon in the abolitionist cause, and a bestseller in the United States. The exhibition poses the question: What aspects of his youth shaped his determination to be free?

Frederick Douglass from Slavery to Freedom: The Journey to New York City was developed from his autobiography, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave, by the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History. The exhibition was curated by Susan F. Saidenberg.

The exhibition has been displayed at schools, museums, libraries, and historic sites across the country.

“Through digital reproductions of letters, photographs, and broadsides, the exhibition invites visitors to learn about the life and legacy of Frederick Douglass,” said Matthew Pannkuk, director of the SCCC/ATS Library. “We hope this exhibition will help our patrons gain a deeper understanding of Douglass’ quest for freedom and the difficult choices he made. These choices can resonate for Americans today who are facing great challenges in achieving their goals and dreams.”

The SCCC/ATS Library is open Monday through Thursday from 7:45 a.m. to 10 p.m., Friday from 7:45 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m. The Library is closed on Saturdays.
