Photo of the 19th century book of hours

An informal lunch or coffee time to meet virtually with Kislak curators and talk about one of the manuscripts from Penn's collections. Each week we'll feature a different manuscript and the expertise of one of our curators. Everyone is welcome to attend.

On December 12, Curators Dot Porter and Nick Herman were joined by Conservation Librarian Tessa Gadomski. We look at an as-yet uncataloged book of hours, written in the late 19th century. It was featured in an unboxing video in January, 2023.
