Houghton-Medieval Studies Lecture in Early Book History**  
  
**Peter Kidd** (independent researcher), *Searching for Missing Pieces of Boston-Area Medieval Manuscripts*. Co-sponsored by the Houghton Library and the Committee on Medieval Studies.

 This lecture will consider a variety of illuminated medieval manuscripts from Houghton and other local collections, each of which has missing leaves, or larger parts, scattered in other collections around the world. It will try to demonstrate that by matching-up far flung pieces of books with those that are held locally, a picture emerges that is 'greater than the sum of its parts'.
