Women in Science: Behind the scenes

Women in Science: Behind the scenes

The purpose of this proposal is to make discoverable the papers, correspondence, manuscripts, drawings, notes, films and other research-related materials for successful women scientists with uncatalogued archives held by the Ernst Mayr Library of the Museum of Comparative Zoology: Tilly Edinger, Ruth Turner, Elizabeth Bangs Bryant & Myvanwy Dick. The audience will be scholars and students in the history of science, marine biology, arachnology and paleontology, particularly those with an interest in women scientists. These collection are well-suited to a CLIR grant because they are currently hidden to researchers.
