Coloring isn’t just for kids—and it might give you some much-needed zen.

Straight from the shelves of the LuEsther T. Mertz Library, #ColorOurCollections is a creative collaboration between libraries, archives, and museums to help share their rare, special collections materials with the world. And the best part is that you can color them yourself! Head to our new page to access a variety of coloring books, each featuring botanical illustrations from our archives which you can print and color at home.
