Eat donuts and listen as librarians Mary and James discuss their new Patent Alcove exhibit, touching on everything from the patents of Cooper alumni - including Lionel trains, the rotoscope, a solar cooker, and the escalator - to the inspiration for the exhibit, Cooper Union Library's 19th-century Patent Alcove, which was open to the public and unlocked the process of invention for countless New Yorkers.
