Behind The Scenes

The exterior of the Thomas Fisher Library offers little clue to the extraordinary treasures inside. Now we can take a ten-minute, behind-the-scenes tour through the Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library in Toronto, Canada, where we can discover a First Folio, the first handwritten draft of Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale, rare manuscripts, Leonard Cohen’s notebooks, and items from its extensive Alice in Wonderland collection. NB: If the video below fails to launch, please visit out home page.
