  1. U of T (IHPST) has an online scientific instruments collection. The web site is found at:

    www.chass.utoronto.ca/utmusi/collections.html

    IHPST has also sponsored demonstrations of experiments past. The study of the relationship between research technology and science has grown in the recent past, as has the study of the relationship between technology and knowledge.
