| Notes | Dalhousie University is located in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, and was established in 1818. Since then, Dalhousie University has grown to house over 15, 000 students with over 180 undergraduate, graduate, and professional degree programs. The Dalhousie Library system currently includes five library branches: Kellogg Health Sciences Library, Killam Memorial Library, Pharmacy Library, Sexton Design and Technology Library, and Sir James Dunn Law Library. Presumably, this bookplate originates from the Kellogg Health Sciences Library, which was formally the Dalhousie Medical-Dental Library.
