In the January 2016 Enews from the American Numismatic Society comes this announcement of the first e-book in their Humanities
Open Book project. -Editor
In anticipation of launching 89 titles as part of the Mellon Foundation-funded Humanities Open Book project, the ANS completed a
proof-of-concept, open access publication based on Medallic Art of the American Numismatic Society (by Scott Miller, 2015). The digital
edition is now freely available in mobi and epub formats (for tablets and mobile devices) through Internet Archive, and can be read via the ANS’s new
Digital Library. A handful of print copies remain available for purchase.
Here are a few images from the book, which draws heavily on the Society's archives and collection. Great information about some great
medals. -Editor
