Announcing 'Lives in Book History: Changing Contours Over Forty Years' Edited by Robin Myers, Michael Harris and Giles Mandelbrote
We regret to announce the death of Frances Guthrie, a member of some 50 years standing and a longtime member of council. She had devoted her life to collecting the work of her great-uncle, James Guthrie, and writing an account of his life and publications.
Happy new year to all our members and a great publishing year in 2021!
