RBM: A Journal of Rare Books, Manuscripts, and Cultural Heritage (formerly Rare Books and Manuscripts Librarianship, RBML) is the Association of College and Research Libraries' journal covering issues pertaining to the world inhabited by special collections libraries and cultural heritage institutions.

As rare book and manuscript libraries have metamorphosed into special collections libraries, so too have special collections libraries changed into cultural heritage repositories. The opportunities for new professional conversations are proliferating. How we cope with emerging technologies, new economic models for collecting, the creation of strategic partnerships, and the ways in which people experience the authentic are themes that will be part of the conversations taking place within the pages of RBM.

Those writing for RBM may include special collections librarians, archivists, preservation officers and conservation technicians, artists, museum professionals, collectors, dealers, filmmakers, performance artists, faculty, students, researchers, and anyone interested in and working to preserve cultural heritage.

RBM is published twice a year. It is an independent ACRL publication. It is not a membership journal and is sent to members of ACRL’s Rare Books and Manuscripts Section only if they subscribe.
