Rare Book school

Any E-Sylum readers are pure book collectors who include antique numismatic books in their libraries might be interested in attending the Rare Book School. I picked up a leaflet on it at the International Congress on Medieval Studies at Kalamazoo last week. Here's what it says:

Join book enthusiasts from around the globe to study the history of manuscripts this summer at RBS!

The Book in the Manuscript Era, Ramond Clemens, Yale, Yale 10-15 June.

Advanced Seminar in Medieval Manuscript Studies, Barbara A. Shailor, Yale, Yale 10-15 June

Introduction to Paleography, 800-1500, Consuelo Dutschke, Columbia University, University of Virginia 8-13 July

This year's classes are pretty esoteric--advanced numismatic bibliophiles seem to be content with the earliest PRINTED numismatic book, not even thinking that there might be older numismatic manuscripts--but the Rare Book School covers different subjects every year, so it might be wise to bookmark their website.

Rare Book School is a multi-venue event. -Editor

From the web site:

Spring 2018 courses will be offered at the Lilly Library in Bloomington, IN (13–18 May) and at the Thomas J. Watson Library at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City (20–25 May). Summer 2018 sessions will be held at Amherst College (10–15 June), Yale University (10–15 June), the University of Pennsylvania and the Free Library of Philadelphia (10–15 June) and at the University of Virginia (June–August).
