On the Move | Newberry Library 2026 Rare Map and Book Fair

On the Move

Join us for the opening reception for the Rare Map and Book Fair at the Newberry Library followed by dinner at Somerset, where you will order the meal and drink of your own choosing and your own cost. You’ll enjoy camaraderie and share Rare Map and Book Fair finds.

The Newberry Library is hosting this rare map and book fair in conjunction with the fiftieth anniversary of the Chicago Map Society. You’ll have time to mingle, and shop leading map and book dealers from across the country.
