Having received the great news that the IHC is funding the History of Books & Material Texts Research Focus Group for a third year, we’re eager to continue developing our program of events for the year ahead and would be pleased to have your input. We’d especially like to have indications of interest in our Research Share series, and to hear your suggestions for speakers to invite.
In addition to inviting speakers whose expertise is relevant to book history and textual materiality, we’re hoping to dovetail with the IHC’s “Geographies of Place” theme for this year (see http://www.ihc.ucsb.edu/category/series/geographies-of-place/ for more info). If there’s a speaker you’d especially like to see, please send a name our way.
