Report of the Proceedings of a Conference Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Osler's Library at McGill University
Abstract
The Osler Library of the History of Medicine was opened in 1929 at McGill University. Sir William Osler (1849-1919), Canada's most famous medical man of his era, had bequeathed his magnificent library of almost 8,000 historical works on medicine and science to the university. Under the thirty-year reign of its first librarian, Dr. W.W. Francis, the Osler Library is famous for its expanded collection of rare books on the history of the health sciences.
