Book Collecting and Scholarship
註釋Book Collecting and Scholarship was first published in 1954. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions.This volume will appeal particularly to rare book collectors, typophiles, librarians, and others interested in book collecting. The book contains a series of five essays on the general subject of the role of the philanthropic book collector in the development of culture and scholarship, historically and in modern times. It describes the significant achievements of such great collectors as Huntington, Folger, Morgan, Newberry, and Clark. The essays were originally offered at the dedication of the James Ford Bell Room and its collection of rare books at the University of Minnesota Library on October 30, 1953.
