Mallory N. Haselberger
Mallory (Mal) Haselberger was a student assistant in the University Libraries’ Special Collections and University Archives, focusing on Maryland & Historical Collections and The 1856 Project. An M.A. candidate in Art History, she studies seventeenth-century European women artists, artistic manuals, and early printed books that build upon her first M.A. degree in English Literature. Mal’s research is broadly informed by her experiences working in libraries and archival spaces, as well as her artistic practice centered on bookmaking and letterpress printing. Her thesis, “By the Book: Early Modern Women’s Artistic Education and the Silent Instruction of Print Culture,” builds on this knowledge by considering the changing nature of women’s artistic education through printed volumes between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In Fall 2023, Mal began a Master of Library and Information Sciences degree with a concentration in special collections, archives, and rare books.
