The Yiddish Book Center stewards a collection of type-related materials, including a large assortment of metal and wood letterpress type and a Yiddish-language Linotype once owned and operated by the Forverts newspaper. Join Caleb Sher, the Richard S. Herman Endowed Senior Fellow in bibliography, as he explores the Yiddish Book Center’s impressive collection of type and how it plays a role in our new permanent exhibition, Yiddish: A Global Culture.  This event is free to attend and presented online via Zoom. Registration is required.
