CERL Blog
In 2019/2020, CERL launched the CERL Blog. The blog editors are Vera Andriopoulou (Laskaridis Foundaton and CERL Promotion Working Group) and Marian Lefferts (CERL).
We added a blog facility to our existing portfolio of methods for connecting with you via social media
- Because it allows us to present slightly longer stories about the services that CERL develops,
- Because the blog posts can be more visual than the news circulated via the CERL mailing list, or even the CERL Newsletter, and
- Because here we can give a better platform for news from our member libraries.
In addition to CERL news, we hope to present you with news from the manuscript and rare books community on library policies and practices, seminars and conferences, exhibitions and publications.
We invite both CERL members and scholars to contribute. If you have a suitable topic (or perhaps you have already written some text) and an accompanying image or two, then please contact Marian Lefferts, who can work with you to add your contribution to the blog.
