Please join the Special Collections Research Center and students from Professor Holly Dugan’s English Renaissance class (ENGL3430) for an engaging pop-up exhibit that showcases student research about the fascinating rare books in GW’s Special Collections, which will be on display.

The exhibit celebrates the books, authors, printers, readers, and collectors who helped to define the Renaissance as an age of print. We’ll also explore how and why these Renaissance objects found their way to our library; these stories are as varied and interesting as the books themselves and form an integral part of GW’s history.


All sessions are free to GW students, faculty, staff, and alumni. GW has an institutional commitment to ensuring that all of our programs and events are accessible for all individuals. If you require any accommodations to participate in this event, please contact libraryevents@gwu.edu at least 72 business hours (3 business days) prior to the event.

In-person attendance of this workshop is open to anyone whose GWorld allows them to tap into Gelman Library.
