The free online version of a forthcoming book from the Research Centre in the History of the Book:
The papers in this volume represent the core of a conference that took place in the University of London on 12-13 March 2001 under the auspices of the Institute of English Studies, the Institute of United States Studies and the Institute of Historical Research. The question, and title of the conference, \’Do we want to keep our newspapers?\’, had suddenly become one of urgent and open public concern when it was widely realised for the first time that collections of original newspapers in major research libraries were being managed by policies of deaccessioning and destruction.
Apologies if this is a re-post.
