The George T. Harrell Health Sciences Library, Penn State Hershey, will host a National Library of Medicine traveling exhibit that explores the experiences of disabled Civil War veterans. "Life and Limb: The Toll of the American Civil War" will be on display from Feb. 13 to March 21, and will feature images, Civil War ephemera and books. It is hosted in partnership with The Doctors Kienle Center for Humanistic Medicine and the Department of Humanities, and coincides with the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg.

Two lectures will be held in conjunction with the exhibition. At noon March 8, in the Junker Auditorium, Susan Rosenvold will present "Clara Barton and Battlefield Medicine." Rosenvold is the superintendent of the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office in Washington, D.C. Her lecture will shed light on how the approach to battlefield medicine during the Civil War was challenged by advocates, including Barton, who saw a need for better and faster medical care during and after battles.
