Our online collection is a work in progress. It reflects only a portion of the entire collection and the ongoing work conducted over the course of our 115-year history. The objects presented may contain offensive racial, gender, sexual, religious, and other language and imagery, and their records may contain offensive and discriminatory language, or reflect outdated ideas and analyses. We are actively working to address these issues, and we welcome your feedback as we strive to improve our data and our practices.
