Amazing time getting a behind the scenes look at @SCRC_Temple this week. The immense storage space and robo-page that can retrieve 48 boxes at once really blew me away. Plus, the archives are a great resource for Philly labor history. Check them out!

Introducing students to our French 15th-c Book of Hours (@SCRC_Temple MS 133). It’s an absolute joy to have a rare book/manuscript collection to teach with, and makes all the difference. #medievaltwitter
