2026 marks the fifth-year anniversary of the HSHSL Calendar! To match that milestone, this year’s theme, Botanical Marvels, features some of the most impressive images from Historical Collections Pharmacy Historical Collection. This year’s calendar is stunning with vibrant colors and showstopping botanicals that will add interest to your wall all year long.

The botanicals featured in the calendar include images from William Curtis’ The Botanical Magazine, William Woodville’s Medical Botany, and Franz Kohler’s Kohler’s Medizinal-Pflanzen. These botanicals, as well as others, are part of the Pharmacy Historical Collection, which also includes pharmacopoeias, dispensatories, and herbals. The volumes in the collection date from the 17th century.

The calendar was designed by Thom Pinho, Lead Instructional Technology Specialist, while the content was written and provided by Tara Wink, Historical Collections Librarian and Archivist.

A limited number of calendars are for sale for $10. They make fantastic gifts!
