AAASS Roundtable on Hidden Library Collections

[June Farris]

FYI-
For those of you who are going to AAASS, I thought I would bring to your attention the roundtable that was organized about Hidden Library Collections, one of which might be pertinent to your research interests and worth learning more about.  The details will not be in the official program, because individual "topics" for roundtables are not listed-only the names of the participants. JPF
