Dessert hummus, where have you been all my life? 💕
Another amazing find in the #deweyreclassproject 😊
#deweyreclassproject Update: Finished with the regular items! Now time to fix all these bound-withs that I discovered & weren't described in the catalog at all... 🙃
I'm adding the printers and original works/titles of each leaf to our copy of Haebler's "The Italian Incunabula" & found these beauties. 📚❤
Read more about the great project from one of our cataloger's @bethanylilyk blog.lib.uiowa.edu/speccoll/2021/…
Found this manuscript letter by William Walton (the translator) tipped in after the t.p. in our copy of "Sketch of the United States of America" (London: J. Booth..., 1814.) Super cool find but mildly annoyed that it wasn't in the catalog record previously. #deweyreclassproject
Working on recataloging this 1561 copy of "The Historye of Italye," and look, someone drew their own manicule! 😊 . #specialcollections #rarebooks #deweyreclassproject @UISpecColl
Another cool find -- lots of ownership signatures & even some pen scorings in this 1505 copy of Terentius In sua metra restitutus.

This is so beautiful!! Amelia Edwards also wrote ghost stories—her best known is “The Phantom Coach.” She is buried with her partner of 30 years, a woman named Ellen Drew Braysher, and their grave was designated an lgbt landmark.

Found this book while recataloging & did some research on its provenance. Belonged to Lucy Renshaw & inscribed to her from her friend & travel companion Amelia B. Edwards, a talented writer & self-taught Egyptologist. Leather binding with silver monogram & cornerpieces. 😊📚

Thanks to @WinterthurMuse Poison Book Project, the Conservation & Collection Care Dept is working with our curator @Bookish_Eric to pull and test possible Victorian-era publishers' bindings made with toxic materials, like arsenic. Learn more here: wiki.winterthur.org/wiki/Poison_Bo…
@bethanylilyk That's one surprised dolphin! 1) I have John Bale envy. 2) Now I really want to think that Oporinus is throwing shade at Aldus Manutius & family by putting Arion on his printers device. Can't wait to see what else you find!
Never seen this Jethro Tull album before...

Small thought that comes up for me a lot: do we really know that users rely on LC subject headings? Or do they use native language search? What if we just used reasonable subjects that just... made sense?

#Earlymodern printer's marks. They come in all shapes, artistry, sizes, and with beautiful decorations and patterns. For example, take Christopher Plantin's Golden Compass or Aldus Manutius' dolphin entwined around an anchor. And then you have Cornelis Verchueren's turnip... /1

@bethanylilyk That probably predates the Vaernewyck acquisition.
@liamsims @LeoCadogan @bethanylilyk Lots of books it had just acquired in 34 copies from dissolved monasteries …
@LeoCadogan @bethanylilyk Yes. The royal library in Munich (usually ‘Monacensis’) got rid of lots of early books in the C19.
Because the binder of this 16th-century work mistakenly bound quire D consisting of 8 sheets, before quire C, an #earlymodern reader decided to add signposts after quire B to indicate when s/he had to turn 8 pages & to go back 16 pages to read the text in the correct order.
Psst... New job, who dis? ••••• Happy to share I'm now Acquisitions & Collection Development Librarian @IngallsLibrary, @ClevelandArt. It's going to be fun. ----- #WhatDoesSheKnowAboutArt Photos by Brad Feinknopf, Rafael Viñoly Architects.
