Since July 2015, when we first welcomed readers to the Rare Books and Special Collections blog<\/a>, we have enjoyed using this forum to tell readers about recently acquired and newly described items, as well as well-known materials and hidden gems. We publish posts to help you\u2014our readers\u2014better know who we are and what we do, and we provide regular updates on exhibitions and events hosted by RBSC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To mark the ten-year anniversary of our blog, we have selected a few of the 471 posts we have published so far, written by a variety of curators, librarians, and guest authors. Continue scrolling to find a sample of interesting topics from our second five years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
