The editor of our print journal, Maria Fanning, submitted this article about the latest issue. Can't wait to see it! -Editor
The winter edition of The Asylum is on its way to NBS members and we have some fascinating articles from W. David Perkins, Joel J. Orosz, and Shanna Schmidt, as well as another Off
the Shelf by David Fanning and a book review by David Gladfelter. Many readers also shared their comments and opinions about our last issue on the future of numismatic literature, which we have
shared in this issue.
Just for fun, we have included a reader poll ranking our favorite winter movies about books at surveymonkey.com/r/6NCRXWX. Check out our
suggestions for indoor fun for the whole family or tell us about your favorite movies starring books!
