An informal lunch or coffee time to meet virtually with Kislak Curator Dot Porter and talk about one of the manuscripts from Penn's collections. Each week we'll feature a different manuscript and the expertise of other curators. Everyone is welcome to attend. On July 27, Curator Dot Porter will bring out Oversize LJS 184, a late 13th century copy of Isidore of Seville's Etymologiae, an encyclopedia with emphasis on word origins, arranged by subject.
