Historical-scientific heritage and the university: the two pillars of the History of Pharmacy collection in the Faculty of Pharmacy of the University of Seville
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The permanent exhibition space created in the Faculty of Pharmacy in the University of Seville (Spain) operates as a teaching and research centre. All pieces in the collection are inventoried and displayed in a permanent, coherent and orderly exhibition that serves as an educational tool for all walks of life. This article explains how the pieces are managed, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of creating and disseminating a historical-scientific collection in a field as specific as a university. We also explore the contrast between the concepts of “conservation” and “new technologies” that are so often unthinkingly bundled together in historical collections today.
