Hosting a JASNA event here at my rare book lib in celebration of 250 years of Jane Austen, and I’ve just pulled a cart of our JA 1st eds, our beautiful P&P peacock edition, a printing of her Grandison juvenilia, & works by authors in her literary world (Richardson, Burney, Radcliffe, Wollstonecraft)

Had to do a health survey where it tells you your “real age” as part of my new university health insurance.
After it told me my health survey results indicate I’m a year older than my calendar age it told me I’ve won something. Could it be depression?

Doing some prep for a JASNA event we’re hosting here at Emory later this month in honor of 250 years of Jane Austen. We have 1st editions of all of her novels!
Our copy of Pride and Prejudice was once owned by an aristocrat named Charlotte Ashburnham (née Percy), who was an artist and printmaker!

Had some unfortunate confederate iconography for being Georgia’s “most-visited attraction” but the views were really gorgeous. Was surprised to learn they were still quarrying here until the late 1970s
