periodic reminder that there are so many cool old books and many of them have been scanned and are available online! and if not, if you reach out to a library with special collections (just about all of us have these btw! their coolness factor depends on the library's focus) they might very well be catalogued and searchable and accessible in person!
#the thing about librarians is we love to tell you about the cool shit we have#please ask.#the bnf is a fantastic resource for digitized french books#the nypl and loc have good collections too#universities also although the online access varies#just about anyone with substantial funding has the good stuff#the met has ALL of their publications digitized#evelyn carnahan cosplay career
