Finding HMML at the International Congress on Medieval Studies (aka "Kalamazoo")



Finding HMML at the International Congress on Medieval Studies at Kalamazoo, Michigan (May 9-12, 2013)

From the Malta Study Center exhibit. Click to enlarge.
As in other years, the Hill Museum & Manuscript Library is participating in several sessions and activities at the International Congress on Medieval Studies next month.  I've listed sessions below where HMML staff will be involved.  In addition to sessions with papers, HMML will again hold its own reception on Friday night, but this time in the Fetzer Center (room 2020).  We hope you can join us!


The Malta Study Center has arranged for a display of panels commemorating the 900-year anniversary of the papal bull of Pascal II and the establishment of the Knights of Malta. The display will be at the Department of Special Collections in the Waldo Library. For a preview of these panels, go to Theresa Vann's Melitensia Blog:
