Dear Green Places - Exhibition Tour

A curator-led hour-long tour of the exhibition Dear Green Places: Nature and our Health, held for Green Libraries Week.

This curator-led tour marks Green Libraries Week and explores the exhibition Dear Green Places: Nature and our Health, which draws on the college's archival and book collections to examine how nature has supported human health for millennia. Displays include writings by ancient Greeks such as Dioscorides and Hippocrates, herbal books on plant-based medicines, medieval physic gardens, Glasgow's Victorian parks, and the therapeutic uses of water. The tour also covers the environmental themes of the exhibition and the sustainability measures being taken with the displays.
