Since the opening of the United States National Museum in 1881, the Materia Medica Section had dutifully submitted reports of its activity, sometimes as frequently as monthly. In the Summer of 1887, we find an extensive annual report of the previous year's activity together with interim reports. Please join us in transcribing this material and learn more about the role these curators and their collections played in the work of acquiring and disseminating knowledge.
