	The first review deals with Ann Blair’s very interesting book on managing scholarly information up to the early modern era. A concise summary of Blair’s most important ideas is accompanied by a brief commentary underscoring the book’s merits and shortly referring to some of its more debatable details.
	The second review contains a brief summary of Anthony Grafton’s fascinating new book covering the work of book correctors and editors in the first two and a half centuries of print. The work done by one of the best scholars in the field of intellectual history is based mainly on case studies and leads to a conclusion that five hundred years ago publishing posed almost exactly the same problems as it does today.
