Exploring Special Collections and University Archives: Why Study the History of the Book, the Archaeology of Texts

Martin Antonetti,  Rare Books Assessment Librarian

The archaeology of the book--discovering clues in the physical medium of the codex--helps us understand how knowledge is transmitted from age to age. This talk will elucidate the "archaeological" approach that special collections librarians and archivists can bring to bear, particularly in the classroom.
