It’s hard to believe – but our inaugural network conference took place a full five years ago in Freiburg! Since then, this blog has been in existence, and we would like to take this opportunity to thank everybody who has contributed over the years. We are still convinced that it’s a good place to make book historical research in the German-speaking area more visible to researchers around the world. On Twitter (@bookhistorynetw) we are nearing 1000 followers. If you’re not a Twitter follower yet, please follow us! The 1000th follower will win a small prize…
However successful our blog and twitter account are, networks thrive on personal exchange, so we would like to suggest a network meeting at SHARP 2019 – or maybe even a panel? The deadline for submissions will be in November as always, and we will be in touch with you, our readers and followers (and guests!) before then.
Here’s to five years – and counting.
