Our current exhibition: The Niels Bohr Library and Archives' newest exhibit focuses on our resources on women in physics and allied sciences. The exhibit includes selections from oral history interviews and books, as well as correspondence, research notebooks and other materials from two collections of personal papers—those of Melba Newell Phillips and Nancy Roman. Please stop by the Reading Room to enrich your knowledge of the role of women in physics.
