E-SYLUM KUDOS
Ralf W. Böpple of Stuttgart / Germany writes: "In reply to
Mr. Bassoli?s call, two weeks ago, for more non-U.S.-related
contributions to The E-Sylum, I can only hope that readers
are not deterred from sending in non-U.S.-related material
because they perceive the newsletter to be focussed on U.S.
numismatics. It is precisely the scope of this e-zine which has
so far been my greatest delight - just because the topics were
not only U-S.-related (and not necessarily literature-related,
for that matter). To give one example, the greatest benefit I
have had from the E-Sylum in the past, apart from finding
some highly interesting readings in my mailbox every Monday
to start the week with, has been the information on newly-
published books or documents, be it that they cover U.S. or
non-U.S. topics. My library would definitely not be as
extensive as it is today without the E-Sylum!I can only encourage all readers to bring to our attention any
new publications or reprints in the field of world-wide
numismatics. And if known to you, don't forget to mention
where they might be ordered!"[I'll second Ralf's suggestion - authors, publishers and
readers alike are encouraged to notify us whenever there
is a new publication of numismatic interest on any topic.
It was one of my goals in starting this newsletter to spread
the word about new publications and encourage numismatists
to add them to their libraries. Too many new books receive
little publicity at the time of their publication and quickly go
out of print before many collectors even know they are
available. One habit which has served my library well over
the years has been to immediately order new books as soon
as I learn of them. Typically, the numismatic press will publish
the press release just once, and if you miss that week's issue,
it may be years before you learn again about the publication.
