In October of 2011, Mann Library invited members of the community to send us their photographs of the season’s fungal splendor and received many wonderful responses. The photographers included children and adults, hikers, birders, professional mycologists, gastronomes, and pedestrian commuters who looked down and were moved by the beauty at their feet. On display in Mann’s Top Shelf Gallery through April 2012, “The Other Side of What?” captures some of what they saw.

Mann Library gratefully acknowledges the collaboration of Cornell professor of mycology Kathie Hodge in the conceptualization and production of this exhibit. Photography contributions were made by members of the Cornell Mushroom Club, the Cornell Nature Photographers, and the Cayugabirds listserv. “The Other Side of What?: Adventures in Fungal Wonderland” is generously supported by the Elizabeth (Betty) L. Rowley Fund at Mann Library.
