Histories of Reference Resources

  • 1.  Histories of Reference Resources

    Posted an hour ago

    Hello LHRT,

    Last year as part of LHRT Reads, we were lucky to welcome  Sarah Ogilvie to discuss her book, The Dictionary People. Dr. Ogilvie's research illuminates the fascinating and unexpected social history of the Oxford English Dictionary. 

    Do any of you have any other favorite reads, listens or watches related to the history of reference resources? If so, I'd love to hear any titles you might recommend!

    Thank you!
