Rotterdam Library acquired La civilité puerile, a 1609 French adaptation of Desiderius Erasmus’s handbook on good manners for children that had long been missing from its Erasmus collection. The booklet is now part of the Rotterdam UNESCO-Erasmus collection.
The library is to display the book during Erasmus Week; one report said it can be viewed on 30 October in Rotterdam.
