Rare Books at St Petersburg Publichka

[K M Harkness]

Just a note of caution: when I was there in 2006 they wouldn't let me access the rare books or mss because even though my letter said "she is a PhD student working on her dissertation and please allow her access to any relevant materials in her field" it did not specify rare books or manuscripts.  I did get access when I got a new letter with the proper language.

> I plan of doing some research this summer in the rare book division of the Petersburg Publichka and am wondering what one needs these days for access.  Does one need to write to them in advance requesting permission, describing one's research project, etc., or can one just show up with a library card?  If one does need to write in advance, to whom does one write?  Thanks in advance.
