Research Group Seminars, Workshops, and Symposia
Since 1990, the Research Group has held Seminars, Workshops, and Symposia (organized or co-organized by Mildred Budny) variously at The Parker Library, Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, and at other centers in England, Japan, and the United States. In England, many of these sessions belonged to the series of Research Group Seminars on "The Evidence of Manuscripts." At libraries, the sessions have taken place over relevant manuscripts in the collection, supplemented by photographs. Elsewhere the sessions have usually been accompanied by displays or exhibitions of photographs, mostly by Mildred Budny.
