Sometimes it's strange what topics end up side by side in a new book shipment.

But this diversity is just part of everyday life at an #FID.

Discovered on the old shelfs: an edition of the then popular Tatar “Annual Calendars,” here for the year 1900.

The different calendars on the title page are interesting... and it takes a moment to decipher the various Russian place names in the table.

We'll make it visible in our catalogue ...
