Also this month:

* Dee Gibson has put together a print suite of the images produced for last month’s Printed Matters Now exhibition. These are to be given as gifts to those artists who participated in the show, and a copy is to be kept for our own Special Collections.

* We have seen a mighty influx of co-operative (and other) publications from the serials department. We are grateful for all of your hard work!

*This month, and the month before, also saw a huge influx of newly cataloged materials from the Neil Richards collection, in particular. Thanks again to the ladies upstairs for all of their hard work. We are currently getting through some of our backlog, prepping further materials to go up for cataloging, and so the cycle continues. . .

*We continue working towards soft launches of our two new websites: the Courtney Milne photography site, and the Great War site

* Our Year of Queer exhibit which went up this month, featuring some of the latest additions to the Neil Richards collection of sexual and gender diversity–including everything from Victorian cross-dressers to Marvel comics and back.
