books were not made merely for scholars but for everyone we recognize that there is a big difference between seeing a book through a glass case and actually holding one in your hand clean hands please we recognize that there is a special feeling when one actually handles a rare book and knows the history behind it that is why the mccune collection not only encourages patrons to visit the collection but also to physically handle the collection where else are you encouraged to pick up and examine a page of an original 15th century french illuminated manuscript or examine the original leaves from early chaucer books 1551 and 1561 or original leaves from early printings of shakespeare s plays 1623 1632 1663 and 1685 where else can you be ...
