Detail from Erasmus Symposium poster

Organized to honor the Mennonite Library and Archives and other libraries, an intercollegiate symposium Nov. 4-5 will look at rare publications of Desiderius Erasmus, along with his current relevance.

When Dale Schrag reached his $1 million fundraising goal for an endowment for the MLA, located at Bethel College, he was ready to celebrate with donors and friends.

Just one problem – the goal completion came in the spring of 2020, when the pandemic was almost literally shutting the world down.
