Session III. Ancient Matter, Modern Practice: Acquiring, Interpreting, and Exploiting
Saturday 10:30 am–12 pm
Classical civilizations extend from what is now Scotland in the northwest to the Indus Valley in the southeast, encompassing not only the Mediterranean basin but also all its dependencies; its time span ranges from the Iron Age to the Renaissance and lives on today. Modern scholarship on the topic is even more far-flung, linguistically diverse, and relies on collection of ancient material remains, manuscript and printed texts from papyri to the latest monographs, and, since the early 1970s, electronically stored and indexed sources both visual and textual.

Our panel will help orient you to the scope of modern scholarship on these enduring, cosmopolitan civilizations. What is published, where, and in what form? What are the most efficient means to acquire it? What are the speediest means to access it, and to focus on the sources your students and researchers need? Most important, how do librarians and teachers integrate this enormous body of material culture and textual knowledge into classroom instruction, and how can librarians contribute to that work?
