Things Left in Books Collection

Anonymous readers left these lovely bits and pieces inside books as place markers or sentimental tokens, but we have no record of where these pieces of ephemera were found. Without the book as context, they lose meaning. It is our policy now to leave these traces of readership in place.

You can see these items in person as part of our current exhibition, The Living Book: New Perspectives on From and Function on display through January 5th, 2018.
