#bookhistory Hey, folks, have you made, or do you have, a favourite bibliography or curated corpus focused on 18th or 19th century books in English? Maybe it's quite small or has a niche genre or period focus? (how-to manuals from the 1840s? books about cows, 1770-1820?) I'd love to hear abt it!
This is very important.
Want some summer reading? How about a "book about books about computing"??
I have a new book out via @mitpress.bsky.social

For those looking at their NEH grant reinstatement, highly recommend looking at the Award Reinstatement Instructions, which are much more specific about what is/isn't a change of scope, what budget changes need approval (nothing w/in 25% of total award), & what staffing needs approval.
