Yesterday I neglected to call Brandeis University's library, as the boss requested, to make sure that no one would check out Iustus Lipsius. Europae Lumen et Columen. Proceedings of the International Colloquium, Leuven 17-19 September 1997, Supplementa Humanistica Lovaniensia XV, ed. G. Tournoy et al. (Leuven 1999), before I could pick it up for him. The electronic catalog had indicated on Monday that it was still available, but you never know.
Fortunately there were no runs on the library's supply of recent books on (16th century humanist) Lipsius out Waltham way. Probably that's only because it's the first day of classes out there. Had I waited til next week, boy howdy, who knows.
The Brandeis main library has a pretty cool HO-scale Roman Forum. I wasted some time scoping it out.
It's hilly there. Rather a steep climb from the commuter rail.
