We were thrilled to host the new interns and fellows at the Cullman Library!? ? As for the Smithson family recipes… they came from Hannah Glasse’s?"The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy… By a Lady"?(London, 1770). It might not have been the very first cookbook, but it was a game-changer for the everyday cook! Glasse was all about making good food accessible—no need for royal banquets or culinary showmanship. ? In much the same way, James Smithson wasn’t technically the founder, but he’s the reason it exists! His generous bequest created an institution dedicated to the "increase and diffusion of knowledge." Like Glasse, who brought sophisticated cooking to the masses, Smithson’s vision ensured that education and discovery would be available to everyone—not just the elite. ? Two very different fields, but both about bringing knowledge (and maybe a tasty dish or two) to the people!
*Enrichment Programming* | Ever wondered what James Smithson, the founding donor of the Smithsonian Institution, had for dinner? ??? ? Our interns and fellows recently discovered this fascinating tidbit during the Smithsonian Libraries and Archives (SLA) open house! They had the opportunity to explore the extensive resources SLA provides to support research, and even got to engage with some rare books, including Smithson’s family cookbook. This open house is just one of the many social, academic, and career enrichment programs we offer to our interns and fellows. ? Where will we go next? Stay tuned to find out! ? #SmithsonianLibraries #Archives #RareBooks #Internships #Fellowships #Enrichment
