Well, it seems like 1 of our main words for this year is TRAVEL! Only 1 month down, and @louisahb.bsky.social has already been to Australia to present a seminar paper & make a project recording. Now @egiselbrecht.bsky.social & @drklmckeogh.bsky.social are off to Bologna for our 1st library of 2025

It's an exciting week for us with another major library trip. Following Louisa and Elisabeth's recent work in Belgium, we're staying on home turf at the British Library. We'll round off the week with a meeting with our colleagues at the Music, Heritage, & Place project.

Countless productive conversations, a few mussels and just over 10,000 photos later, and Louisa is back in blighty working on the next paper/article. Thanks to Kristof, Steven and Derek as always. A big recommendation to visit the Plantin-Moretus and Hendrik Conscience Heritage Libraries in Antwerp!

Katie had a brilliant afternoon at a knowledge exchange event hosted by the Shaping Scholarship: Early Donations to the @bodleianlibraries.bsky.social project discussing databases, the perils of early donation records, and much more. Thank you to Weston Library staff for the fabulous book display.

Louisa is making the final preparations for her next trip to the Plantin-Moretus Museum and Hendrik Conscience Heritage Library in Antwerp as 2024 Nottebohm Fellow. Delighted to return to sights such as this (ARCH 1231, Catalogue d’éditions plantiniennes en 1580). #bookhistory #musicbookhistory

Large poster catalogue from 1580 of Plantin's publications for sale. The poster takes up the width of a large table in the reading room of the Plantin-Moretus Museum. In the distance one can see bookshelves at the end of a spacious and airy modern reading room.

DORMEME Amici are now live!!! One of the best parts of our project is the opportunity for a collaborative approach to all things Dissemination, Ownership, and Reading. Engaging with scholars who share our passion for these areas can have a significant impact on the work we all do.

Katie attended the #earlymodern Semi-Public Libraries conference yesterday at Lambeth Palace Library. As well as stimulating discussion on what 'public' means in this context, we enjoyed spectacular views. Thank you @annalujz.bsky.social and the History of Libraries seminar for bringing us together

Who owned and read music books in early modern Europe? Who had access to printed musical material, how did they interact with it, and to what end? Let’s get started…. www.kcl.ac.uk/research/dor...
