Jesuit LibrariesAcknowledgments I would like to thank the many librarians and archivists I have relied on for the length of my academic career. Alas, I learned the name of very few of them; those who work at circulation and distribution desks represent a small percentage of those employed by such institutions. In addition, the research collections that supported this and my other work over the decades are the result of decades, and in some cases centuries, of careful preservation, organization, and other forms of service to the print and manuscript heritage of the world.Georgia Southern University has been my professional home since 1999 and has supported my work steadily throughout those years. This includes being an institutional sponsor of the RPJSS series, starting in 2021. I thank the Department of History, the Henderson Library, the College of Arts and Humanities, and the University Office of Research for their contributions, and Brill and Robert A. Maryks for the series itself.
