Starting tomorrow (Wednesday, November 18), the Schoenberg Institute for Manuscript Studies will be virtually hosting the annual Schoenberg Symposium
on Manuscript Studies in the Digital Age through Friday, November 20. This year’s theme is “Manuscript Studies in the
Digital Covid-19 Age,” where we will be considering the state of digital manuscript studies, where we’ve been, and where we need to go. While registration is currently full for the synchronous event, we are making available to the general public 25 5-minute
lightening round talks via the SIMS Youtube channel
here for asynchronous viewing.
The videos represent a broad spectrum of the exciting work going on in manuscript studies right now, and it's inspiring to see innovation taking
place even during these uncertain times. We hope you'll enjoy them as much as we do. Links to individual videos and more information are available on the Lightning
Round Video program posted here:
