Early Printed Books as Material Objects – Conference Papers

By chantrylibrary Just arrived !  New IFLA Conference Proceedings :
Early Printed Books as Material Objects (Proceedings of the Conference organized by the IFLA Rare Books and Manuscripts Section, Munich, 19-21 August 2009), edited by Bettina Wagner and Marcia Reed, IFLA Publications 149, De Gruyter Saur, Berlin/New York, 2010, ISBN: 978-3-11-025324-5
The papers collected in this volume discuss descriptive methods and present conclusions relevant for the history of the book production and reception. Books printed in Europe in the 15th and 16th century still had much in common with manuscripts. They are not mere textual sources, but also material objects whose physical make-up and individual features need to be taken into account in library projects for cataloguing and digitization.

“The Technical Examination of Old Master Drawings: a symposium in conservation science”, Clore Centre, British Museum, 20th May 2010

by theconveyor on May 24, 2010

For about a year, I was looking forward to attending this symposium, which was organised by the Department of Scientific Research at the British Museum, with support from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. This was an unprecedented effort to gather conservators, conservation scientists and curators to present and discuss one of the most fascinating aspects of our work: the understanding of materials and techniques used by artists. It brought an opportunity to discuss conservation-related issues and the curatorial implications raised by scientific studies. The results from the work presented at the conference can most definitely be applied in the library context, and thus I found this conference most relevant when one considers current and future collaborations between different departments in The Bodleian Libraries, Oxford University and beyond.
