NYC postpones plan to close free dental clinics
Here's a follow-up story from the NY Daily News. The city is currently studying ways to make the program more efficient (that is, they still want to cut its budget). This will be discussed at a NYC city council meeting this month.

WD Miller: Scientific Pioneer of Dentistry
Last year we released the online version of Willoughby Dayton Miller's personal pamphlet collection.
Broschüren. http://quod.lib.umich.edu/cgi/t/text/text-idx?page=browse;c=dentalj;key=title;cc=dentalj;value=b
This was done in honor of the 100th anniversary of the death of the great man. Other events around this memorial included exhibits done in both the Sindecuse Museum and the Dentistry Library, as well as presentations. Here are the final slides from one of the presentations that was given.
You might also be interested in these images from the real exhibit.
