NEW EBOOK: MEDALLIC ART OF THE ANS, 1865–2014

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

Medallic Art of the ANS ebook cover 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
