Openings: Title Pages in the History of Printed Books

This exhibit explores the creativity and utility of an essential part of practically every modern book, the title page. Such pages signal and inform, incite pleasure and intrigue, as well as conceal and mislead. The works shown here from the holdings of the University of Michigan Library illuminate critical moments in the history of books. Students in a Fall 2022 History Lab class researched and created the exhibit.
The exhibit is available for viewing in the Special Collections Research Center (on the sixth floor of the Hatcher Library), Monday-Friday, 10am-4:30pm.
