The selected documents, drawn from the Non-Latin Type Collection at the University of Reading, exhibited the textual representation of a wide range of languages for the dissemination of news during a period that witnessed profound technological changes in composing and type-making practices. Co-curated by Fiona Ross and Vaibhav Singh.
