📚✨ Cover Story! ✨📚

Long time no see, fellow book nerds! 🤓 For our new students, welcome to Cover Story, a weekly series where we dive deep into our collection to find the most unique and intriguing book covers in the Pumerantz Library.

Since it’s been so long, I wanted to get things started on the right foot 🦶 with Clinical Foot Roentgenology: An Illustrated Handbook by Drs. Felton O. Gamble and Irving Yale. The irony of a foot handbook is not lost on me, nor is this cool, minimalist cover 😎

To see this book or one of our many others in person, stop by the Pumerantz Library to speak with a librarian today!
