What happens behind the walls of the national library? What have our researchers been working on and which historical treasures are kept in the closed stacks? 7 passionate experts will present their research. They have one thing in common: they conduct research on books from the KBR collections.

Research staff members at the Alamire Foundation, Antonio Chemotti and Brett Kostrzewski, discuss the music prints of Phalesius and the choirbook for Philip the Fair and Juana of Castile.

During this book history event you will find out all about choirbooks, madrigals, and the challenges book historians are facing. The lectures are in Dutch, French and English.
