Ye Olde Book Club

Special Collections is planning to launch Ye Olde Book Club in Spring 2026. We will read fiction and nonfiction inspired by our own collections, followed by a visit to the Reading Room to see examples that connect to each book.

Before we finalize the club, we need help from our campus community. Students, staff, and faculty are all invited to share interest and availability. Please take the survey in the link in our bio and let us know if you want to join and what days and times work best.

Bring Out Your Dead: Death, Art, and the Macabre in the Archives

Curated by Jennifer Ottinger

Our October exhibit, Bring Out Your Dead: Death, Art, and the Macabre in the Archives, features E.-H. Langlois’s Essai Historique Philosophique et Pittoresque sur les Danses des Morts (1852) from the Wildenstein Plattner Library Collection. Langlois’ work traces Europe’s centuries-long obsession with the Danse Macabre—where skeletons mingled with popes and peasants, showing that in the end, death comes for everyone.
