Including Lectures on the Library of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences
by Jaap Kloosterman, Frans van der Kolff, and Jan Lucassen
Lecture held on 2 June 2005, p. 9-15
This eleventh issue of On the Waterfront is the first one to appear prior to the regular Friends meeting, which has been moved to 26 January (see also On the Waterfront 10, p. 2).
The June meeting differed a little from previous ones. Instead of the usual lecture, three presentations were held at the last Friends meeting on the special occasion of the transfer of library of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences, abbreviated as KNAW Library, to the IISH. The report on these presentations, held by Frans van der Kolff, librarian of the Academy’s library, Jaap Kloosterman and Jan Lucassen, now takes up the lion’s share of the space in this issue.
