Steedman Library books and other materials are not usually on view to the public, but from December, 2014 through May, 2015, you can see them in the eight display cases in Central's Great Hall. View one of the elephant folio Piranesis, the collection's oldest book (1521), a recent artist's book that recreates Palladio's Villa Rotonda, and much more.
