Calling all bibliophiles! Join us this January as the book club explores Susannah Handley's Nylon: The Story of a Fashion Revolution, a fascinating look at how a single synthetic fiber reshaped fashion, technology, and 20th-century culture.
Drawing on themes from recent exhibitions and facilitated by chief librarian Frank Luca, Beyond the Pages is a series exploring novels through the lens of the collection.
