Dear fellow catalogers,

The Folger Shakespeare Library hosts a series of informal sessions each spring and fall called Practical Paleography, with a dual educational and practical goal--teaching English secretary hand while building up a corpus of transcribed manuscripts, making incredibly rich archival sources available to the (print-)reading public.

It's almost time for another round of Practical Paleography. Please considering joining us on Zoom in either the beginner or mystery manuscript room, Thursdays from 1pm-2pm EST, September 4 through November 6. If you are interested in participating, please email sbschliep at folger.edu<mailto:sbschliep at folger.edu>.
