It’s History!: The Library Company of Philadelphia

Founded in 1731 by Benjamin Franklin, the Library Company's collection includes rare books, manuscripts, broadsides, ephemera, prints, photographs, and works of art. Join It's History! as we explore the Library Company and its collection of books on women's history, an exhibit on the 18th century massacre of the Conestoga, and more.

It's History! airs Sunday nights at 8.

Watch It’s History! and more PA History and Culture on cable and the PCN Select Streaming Service.
