As a police trainer I travel all over and have the opportunity to see alot of things. I thought it would be nice to share with others some of the non work related parts of these travels

Oklahoma University Library 2014

Had very little time to look at these archives less than 15 minutes so I took pictures of what I could get. There was alot of renovation going on and alot wasn't available. I'm told however I may be able to enter the vault in the fall to see much more.

The above picture is a book by Galileo that was personally owned by Galileo himself in 1632. That is actually Galileo's handwriting in top left corner. He made several notes in this book.

A closer pic of Galileo's notes
a little less blurry

The next few pics are from a biography of Queen Elizabeth written in 1577

The next couple are from a second edition publishing of the works or William Shakespeare published in 1632 only 16 years after his death
