Well-Behaved Pirates, Publishers, and Libraries: The Early Years

Friday, November 6, 2015
3:10 pm - 5:00 pm
107 South Hall
Tom Leonard, University Librarian Emeritus

Tom Leonard will talk about how library digitization efforts changed scholarship on 18th century pirates and how a concept born in that distant era (the “pirating” of intellectual property) began to drive authors and publishers mad.

Tom Leonard recently retired after many years as professor of journalism and fifteen years as university librarian.
