From the Mann Library website:

The L. H. Bailey Conservatory at Cornell supports the study of comparative biology as well as active research in fields that transcend the plant sciences. A late spring exhibit in the Top Shelf Gallery at Mann Library features select plant treasures from the Conservatory’s collection—one of the most outstanding of its kind in the world—along with highlights from the Conservatory’s history in promoting a better understanding of global plant biodiversity and public appreciation for art and science.
