This exhibit provides a platform to begin understanding the effects of rising sea levels along the coasts of Indonesia, Bangladesh, The Netherlands, Italy and the United States.

By the end of the century oceans are predicted to rise between .3 and 2.5 meters, which will result in major flooding in coastal cities around the world. The Sinking Cities Project aims to document this inundation through the stories of residents and the changing landscape of their cities.

This photo and video exhibit was produced by Marcin Szczepanski, visual communications director at Michigan Engineering, and Frank Sedlar, Michigan Engineering alumnus.

Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection (December 11, 2018 8:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/56679 56679-13960719@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, December 11, 2018 8:30am
Location: Hatcher Graduate Library
Organized By: University Library

The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects; bilingualism in Egypt; books read by the Egyptian monks; and the works of Shenoute the Great, the most important author of Coptic literature.

This exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.

Join us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

On December 10, 1948, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.

Meredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence, RI, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social, environmental, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

Contesting invisibility through a collaborative production of knowledge: The Afrodescendant Presence in Argentina (December 12, 2018 2:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/57498 57498-14202435@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, December 12, 2018 2:00pm
Location: Hatcher Graduate Library
Organized By: University Library

Marisol Fila, PhD Candidate in Spanish and Portuguese in Romance Languages and Literatures at U-M, discusses the projects she has been generating with the Afro-Argentine organization Xangô to explore the possibilities of a scholarly work conceived as a combination of theory and practice, that seeks to produce knowledge in collaboration and to promote participative and horizontal partnerships between academia and community-based organizations.

The discourse of national identity that emerged in Argentina during the formation of the nation state in the nineteenth and the twentieth century was constructed under a particular classist and racist vision that privileged white European migrants at the same time that turned invisible the presence of Afrodescendants and indigenous groups. By studying historical and contemporary self-representations of Afrodescendant groups in printed and digital culture, Fila's research seeks to recognize the influence of the Afro community and culture to the formation of the Argentine national identity, and the necessity of locating Afrodescendants as social, political and cultural active subjects not only throughout the history but also in the present time. In addition to Fila's dissertation research, she has been developing projects in partnership with Afro-Argentine activist organizations that since the 1990s have been raising their voices against the discrimination suffered.

Emergent Research Series events seek to examine all aspects of the research lifecycle, with a critical focus on ethics, access, and innovation, and with an interest in emerging topics that are relevant to our local and global communities. These events are aimed at better understanding the new ways in which research relies on the work of libraries and information professionals, and where cutting-edge research pushes past what libraries currently support.

Come see highlights from the Library's extraordinary collection of manuscripts and early printed books describing the early history of astrology and astronomy. These holdings range from ancient papyri to richly illustrated books that made possible the scientific revolution in Europe in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, including first editions of the works of Copernicus, Galileo, and Kepler. One of the most impressive highlights of the collection is a one-page manuscript where Galileo himself recorded his observations of the moons of Jupiter for the very first time.

This event is part of Special Collections After Hours, a monthly open house series sharing highlights from the many books, documents, and artifacts held in the Special Collections Research Center.

The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects; bilingualism in Egypt; books read by the Egyptian monks; and the works of Shenoute the Great, the most important author of Coptic literature.

This exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.

Join us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

This exhibit provides a platform to begin understanding the effects of rising sea levels along the coasts of Indonesia, Bangladesh, The Netherlands, Italy and the United States.

By the end of the century oceans are predicted to rise between .3 and 2.5 meters, which will result in major flooding in coastal cities around the world. The Sinking Cities Project aims to document this inundation through the stories of residents and the changing landscape of their cities.

This photo and video exhibit was produced by Marcin Szczepanski, visual communications director at Michigan Engineering, and Frank Sedlar, Michigan Engineering alumnus.

Sinking Cities: Documenting the realities of climate change in cities around the world (December 21, 2018 8:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/57458 57458-14193582@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, December 21, 2018 8:00am
Location: Hatcher Graduate Library
Organized By: University Library

This exhibit provides a platform to begin understanding the effects of rising sea levels along the coasts of Indonesia, Bangladesh, The Netherlands, Italy and the United States.

By the end of the century oceans are predicted to rise between .3 and 2.5 meters, which will result in major flooding in coastal cities around the world. The Sinking Cities Project aims to document this inundation through the stories of residents and the changing landscape of their cities.

This photo and video exhibit was produced by Marcin Szczepanski, visual communications director at Michigan Engineering, and Frank Sedlar, Michigan Engineering alumnus.

Join us for an exhibit opening event on November 16th, 4:00-7:00 p.m., in the Clark Library.

Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection (December 21, 2018 8:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/56679 56679-13960729@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, December 21, 2018 8:30am
Location: Hatcher Graduate Library
Organized By: University Library

The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects; bilingualism in Egypt; books read by the Egyptian monks; and the works of Shenoute the Great, the most important author of Coptic literature.

This exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.

Join us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

On December 10, 1948, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.

Meredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence, RI, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social, environmental, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

This exhibit provides a platform to begin understanding the effects of rising sea levels along the coasts of Indonesia, Bangladesh, The Netherlands, Italy and the United States.

By the end of the century oceans are predicted to rise between .3 and 2.5 meters, which will result in major flooding in coastal cities around the world. The Sinking Cities Project aims to document this inundation through the stories of residents and the changing landscape of their cities.

This photo and video exhibit was produced by Marcin Szczepanski, visual communications director at Michigan Engineering, and Frank Sedlar, Michigan Engineering alumnus.

Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection (January 2, 2019 8:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/56679 56679-13960741@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, January 2, 2019 8:30am
Location: Hatcher Graduate Library
Organized By: University Library

The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects; bilingualism in Egypt; books read by the Egyptian monks; and the works of Shenoute the Great, the most important author of Coptic literature.

This exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.

Join us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

On December 10, 1948, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.

Meredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence, RI, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social, environmental, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

This exhibit provides a platform to begin understanding the effects of rising sea levels along the coasts of Indonesia, Bangladesh, The Netherlands, Italy and the United States.

By the end of the century oceans are predicted to rise between .3 and 2.5 meters, which will result in major flooding in coastal cities around the world. The Sinking Cities Project aims to document this inundation through the stories of residents and the changing landscape of their cities.

This photo and video exhibit was produced by Marcin Szczepanski, visual communications director at Michigan Engineering, and Frank Sedlar, Michigan Engineering alumnus.

Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection (January 8, 2019 8:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/56679 56679-13960747@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, January 8, 2019 8:30am
Location: Hatcher Graduate Library
Organized By: University Library

The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects; bilingualism in Egypt; books read by the Egyptian monks; and the works of Shenoute the Great, the most important author of Coptic literature.

This exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.

Join us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

On December 10, 1948, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.

Meredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence, RI, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social, environmental, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

This exhibit provides a platform to begin understanding the effects of rising sea levels along the coasts of Indonesia, Bangladesh, The Netherlands, Italy and the United States.

By the end of the century oceans are predicted to rise between .3 and 2.5 meters, which will result in major flooding in coastal cities around the world. The Sinking Cities Project aims to document this inundation through the stories of residents and the changing landscape of their cities.

This photo and video exhibit was produced by Marcin Szczepanski, visual communications director at Michigan Engineering, and Frank Sedlar, Michigan Engineering alumnus.

The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects; bilingualism in Egypt; books read by the Egyptian monks; and the works of Shenoute the Great, the most important author of Coptic literature.

This exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.

'Empires define, reproduce and order difference among their populations. Medicine has aided and abetted these processes in a variety of ways, most famously through its contributions to the establishment of modern ‘scientific racism’. Before that Hippocratic environmentalist paradigms dominated many imperial powers: peoples were made the way they were by location and climate, amongst other externally operative factors, not by something intrinsic to them and transmissible to their offspring without that outside assistance. This lecture explores how these notions worked in the specific context of the Roman Empire, with its particular commitments to hierarchy and structure, its definitional claims and organisational styles. There was congruity, it is argued, between the theories of human differentiation articulated by medical authors such as Galen and key features of the imperial formation within which he lived and wrote.'

As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects; bilingualism in Egypt; books read by the Egyptian monks; and the works of Shenoute the Great, the most important author of Coptic literature.

This exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.

Join us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

On December 10, 1948, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.

Meredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence, RI, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social, environmental, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

As we celebrate the extraordinary life and message of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. it is important to note that his vision of hope and racial equality had ripple effects not just through our nation, but across the pond as well. It is with the intention of adding an international perspective to the discussion of race and race relations that the the German department is proud to present Jana Pareigis' investigative film Afro.Germany, in which Pareigis travels across Germany asking the questions: What is it like to be a black person in Germany? And what needs to change?

The event will take place in two locations on January 21, 2019 in the Hatcher Gallery from noon - 2:30, and MLB 3308 from 2pm-5pm. Played on a continuous loop, audiences are invited to come and view as much, or as little, of this journalistic film as they wish.

*Content notice: this documentary includes the use of the n-word in the context of the subject matter at hand regarding the lived experiences of Black Germans

The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects; bilingualism in Egypt; books read by the Egyptian monks; and the works of Shenoute the Great, the most important author of Coptic literature.

On December 10, 1948, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.

Meredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence, RI, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social, environmental, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

Location: Hatcher Graduate Library
Organized By: University Library

Join us for discussion with Nicky Andrews (she/they) North Carolina State University library fellow. Her research interests include Mātauranga Māori, Indigenous knowledge systems, and exploring meaningful ways of sustaining retention for minoritized people in librarianship.

As a Māori library student at the University of Washington in 2017, Andrews did not expect to be able to engage with her culture as part of her professional work. After visiting the Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture on campus, she began to work to restore the mana of the museum's Māori photographic collection and display the toanga in connection to the people and land they came from. Andrews will discuss her work with Māori taonga, her attempts to identify and care for the Rangatira in the photographs, and thoughts on challenges for Indigenous peoples within librarianship.

Andrews holds a Bachelor of Arts in Social Sciences from Auckland University of Technology; a Master of Library & Information Science from the University of Washington; and is a candidate for the Master of Indigenous Studies at the University of Otago.

Emergent Research Series events seek to examine all aspects of the research lifecycle, with a critical focus on ethics, access, and innovation, and with an interest in emerging topics that are relevant to our local and global communities. These events are aimed at better understanding the new ways in which research relies on the work of libraries and information professionals, and where cutting-edge research pushes past what libraries currently support.

By the end of the century oceans are predicted to rise between .3 and 2.5 meters, which will result in major flooding in coastal cities around the world. The Sinking Cities Project aims to document this inundation through the stories of residents and the changing landscape of their cities.

This photo and video exhibit was produced by Marcin Szczepanski, visual communications director at Michigan Engineering, and Frank Sedlar, Michigan Engineering alumnus.

The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects; bilingualism in Egypt; books read by the Egyptian monks; and the works of Shenoute the Great, the most important author of Coptic literature.

This exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.

Join us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection (January 31, 2019 8:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/56679 56679-13960770@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, January 31, 2019 8:30am
Location: Hatcher Graduate Library
Organized By: University Library

The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects; bilingualism in Egypt; books read by the Egyptian monks; and the works of Shenoute the Great, the most important author of Coptic literature.

This exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.

Join us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

On December 10, 1948, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.

Meredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence, RI, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social, environmental, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

The Special Collections Research Center is excited to display a variety of nineteenth and twentieth century children's books made of cloth and related materials.

The market for children’s books expanded over the course of the nineteenth century, as childhood mortality rates dropped and literacy rates rose. British and American publishers sought to create “indestructible” books that would appeal to the parents and teachers of very young children. Linen and muslin proved to be practical and appealing materials for such books, which were usually printed with bright colors and comparatively little text.

Cloth books remained popular for almost a century before the cloth rationing of World War II shifted production towards heavy-duty paper substitutes, such as “linenette.”

Location: Hatcher Graduate Library
Organized By: William L. Clements Library

A current exhibit at the William L. Clements Library aims to present the experiences of ordinary Americans who served in France as part of the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF) during the First World War. Studying hundreds of letters written by soldiers, postcards, photographs, and other diverse materials, curator Louis Miller discovered some shared themes from these firsthand accounts to explore in the exhibition. Miller’s lecture will discuss some of the exceptional and heartbreaking stories found in the Clements’ archives and present an overview of the exhibit.

Join us for the lecture at the Hatcher Graduate Library Gallery; an after-hours viewing of the exhibit at the Clements Library will follow the lecture. Visitors have the opportunity to view both paper and three-dimensional objects relating to the First World War, including a doughboy helmet, censored letters, photographs, and souvenirs. A pamphlet of excerpts from the writings of Americans who served complements the exhibit.

Louie Miller is an archivist at the University of Michigan’s William L. Clements Library. He has a Masters of Science in Information from the U-M School of Information with a specialization in archives and records management and a Bachelors in History from Kalamazoo College. It was while working on his undergraduate thesis at Kalamazoo that he was first drawn to the topic of American involvement in the First World War.

This photo and video exhibit was produced by Marcin Szczepanski, visual communications director at Michigan Engineering, and Frank Sedlar, Michigan Engineering alumnus.

Join us for an exhibit opening event on November 16th, 4:00-7:00 p.m., in the Clark Library.

Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection (February 6, 2019 8:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/56679 56679-13960776@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, February 6, 2019 8:30am
Location: Hatcher Graduate Library
Organized By: University Library

The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects; bilingualism in Egypt; books read by the Egyptian monks; and the works of Shenoute the Great, the most important author of Coptic literature.

This exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.

Join us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

The Special Collections Research Center is excited to display a variety of nineteenth and twentieth century children's books made of cloth and related materials.

The market for children’s books expanded over the course of the nineteenth century, as childhood mortality rates dropped and literacy rates rose. British and American publishers sought to create “indestructible” books that would appeal to the parents and teachers of very young children. Linen and muslin proved to be practical and appealing materials for such books, which were usually printed with bright colors and comparatively little text.

Cloth books remained popular for almost a century before the cloth rationing of World War II shifted production towards heavy-duty paper substitutes, such as “linenette.”
