Here is my 2019 lecture and teaching schedule for 2019.  It is not as lengthy as it once was, since I am now a New York State Librarian at two public Libraries.  However, when I am not at either libraries, you can find me discussing the past, and how we learn from it, at these locations, on these dates. Hope to see you all soon!
