The Events sponsored and co-sponsored by the Research Group on Manuscript Evidence include seminars, masterclasses, exhibitions, workshops, colloquia, and symposia, which take place at various centers.  These events stand apart from the Congress Sessions and other activities (exhibitions, meetings, and receptions) which the Research Group customarily sponsors and co-sponsors at the annual International Congress on Medieval Studies at Kalamazoo, Michigan, as reported in our Congress Archive.
