Please come to Take Note, a conference Ann Blair and I are organizing at the Radcliffe Institute November 1-2.

If you can't watch the conference in person or online, you can still browse the exhibit on the history and future of note taking that Ann, Greg Afinogenov and I are curating in conjunction with the conference; or read about the project in the New York TimesBoston Globe, or Atlantic Monthly.

For other events focused on the history and future of reading, check out Book History at Harvard, courtesy of Hansun Hsiung.
