Abstract

The Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum is the home of the world's largest collection of cartoon and comic art, right here at OSU! We have recently relocated into a beautiful new facility in Sullivant Hall, where we serve the student body, the public, researchers and fans in our reading room as well as display innovative and exciting exhibits in the 3 galleries that comprise our free museum.
