It’s been awfully cold and snowy and doesn’t feel like spring, but the very cheering sight of American robins undeterred by the icy crust tells us spring isn’t all that far away! #FaunaFriday @YaleLibrary

Wouldn’t you like to curl up here with a good book? It may not be our main Reading Room, but the “New Library” retains the same charm it had when designed in 1928 by William Adam’s Delano. It is used now for Friday Fellows’ Coffees, talks, performances, conferences, & receptions

Friendships formed in school can last a lifetime. Annie Burr Lewis stayed very close to friends she’d made @missporters school in Farmington, & they gathered at her home for school reunions for years afterwards. Here are photos taken in 1919 & 1937 Happy #GalentinesDay!

Still waiting? Wondering about the status of your fellowship application? Fear not! Decisions have been made, & notifications will go out by the end of January Our expectation to get announcements out by the first of January was overly optimistic—beg your pardon for the delay
