I've noticed a few self-introduction posts, so here's mine. I am a Hebraica-Judaica cataloging librarian. I've cataloged newly published books and quite a number of 15th century books. I've also cataloged maps, manuscripts, and games. I will post material related to Hebrew books and cataloging. 1/n
I am looking forward to this conference. Hop you can attend.

In Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, 162 years ago today, President Lincoln gave one of the most famous speeches in American history, extolling the sacrifices of the men who died in the battle there. There are five known manuscript copies of the Gettysburg Address. The Library of Congress has two of those.
