Out and About

Memorial Map
This giant, floor-to-ceiling map of the world can be found, appropriately enough, just outside the Map Room on the main floor of the Queen Elizabeth II Library. Hundreds of red pushpins have been provided for members of the Memorial community to pinpoint their geographic location of origin. chris Hammond photo
