Intended for those who have a limited background but a > considerable interest in the history of the book, and who expect, sooner or > later, to take the other two courses in this RBS sequence (The Medieval Book > and The Printed Book in the West since 1800), both scheduled to be offered in > RBS 2001's summer session. Instructor: Martin Antonetti. > > 22: Printed Ephemera. Underpinning the course is the view that ephemera deserv > serious attention from business and social historians, from design and printin > historians, and from those with curatorial responsibilities for collections of > paperbased materials. The course will address ephemera from several different > directions, but principally with the needs of the curator and collector in > mind. It will focus on c19 Englishlanguage ephemera, though the general issues > raised relate to all periods and also to foreignlanguage material. Classes wil > consist of a mix of illustrated talks on specific topics, discussion periods, > and sessions spent looking at original items. Issues to be covered include the > processes used in the production of ephemera (in particular, transfer > lithography and chromolithography); acquisitions policies and strategies; > describing and cataloging ephemera, and the associated issues of dating, > terminology, and the digitization of collections. Instructor: Michael Twyman. > > 34: Rare Book Cataloging. Aimed at catalog librarians who find that their > present duties include (or shortly will include) the cataloging of rare books > or special collections materials.Attention will be given both to cataloging > books from the handpress period and to c19 and c20 books in a special > collections context. Topics include: comparison of rare book and general > cataloging; application of codes and standards (especially DCRB); uses of > special files; problems in transcription, collation and physical description; > setting cataloging policy within an institutional context.
