Glad to know you enjoyed it! COVID happened when I did it, our entire class missed the handling part, except for the first two classes I think :/

Now, his collection has found a new home at UVA. I'm pretty excited to witness again how they will inspire more students. news.virginia.edu/content/uva-...

I audited this class 5 years ago as a PhD student and have been reaping its tremendous benefits, intellectual & professional, since my pivot to librarianship. What Soren always does is to bring over various rare books from his private collection to help us see history in concrete examples.
