About the Event
I am delighted to announce that the Dunedin Rare Book School is back--with in-person classes. There will be 3 options for 2023, with more details available on the School website at https://blogs.otago.ac.nz/cfb/rbs2023/.
The offerings are:
- Teaching with Special Collections: An Introduction with Prof. Tom Mole
- Feminist Bibliography with Dr. Sarah Warner
- An Introduction to Letterpress: A Haptic History with Assoc. Prof. Shef Rogers and Dr. John Holmes
We will be adding advance reading lists to each course in the next few weeks. In the meantime, please feel free to contact me with any questions. We are relieved to be able to return to hands-on instruction. The website provides details on our covid policy, indicating that we will expect students to wear masks when indoors unless they have an exemption. Weather permitting, we hope to hold our breaks outdoors, but Dunedin summers are never entirely predictable.
Cheers,
Shef
