Historic Range <strong>of</strong> <strong>Dental</strong> School<br />
Yearbooks Now Available Online<br />
Recently, the Archives & Special Collections <strong>of</strong> the A.C. Long Health Sciences Library at CUMC announced that<br />
84 years <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Columbia</strong> dental school's bulletins and yearbooks, from 1908 to 1992, have been digitized and are now<br />
online. The first 14 years <strong>of</strong> these publications come from the <strong>College</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Dental</strong> & Oral Surgery <strong>of</strong> New York, which<br />
became the School <strong>of</strong> <strong>Dental</strong> and Oral Surgery<br />
at <strong>Columbia</strong> in 1922. The variety <strong>of</strong> cover design<br />
alone is worth taking the trip back through time,<br />
but photos and commentary <strong>of</strong> past pr<strong>of</strong>essors and<br />
students, as well as decades <strong>of</strong> advertisements for<br />
the dental armamentarium, will entertain all readers.<br />
The digitization was made possible with the assistance<br />
<strong>of</strong> a generous grant from the Metropolitan<br />
Library Council <strong>of</strong> New York.<br />
These digital issues can be accessed through CDM’s<br />
website: www.dental.columbia.edu.<br />
Pages from <strong>Columbia</strong>'s dental yearbooks, ranging from the ’20s to the ’50s.<br />
