A photo essay.
When the Beinecke Library reopened in 2016 after a 16-month renovation, its stewards couldn’t have known that a mere three and a half years later, in March of 2020, they’d be forced to close to the public again.
Now it’s March of ’22, and tomorrow, they’re inviting us back in.
Here’s a little enticement.
