7 OCTOBER 2024
The Library and Archives Committee alerts members to this talk at the Society of Antiquaries on 17 December 5.30pm – 7pm which identifies and explores ‘The Wast Register booke for entring of Coppies’ that the Stationers’ Company started to keep on 7 April 1687.
Archive and they will locate that document among our Company’s records, and show the ways in which it provides a new opportunity both to investigate the practices of the Stationers and to cast new light on Restoration authors and their work.
The event is hybrid, with online attendance and is open to everyone.
