  • State Library Victoria Receives Extraordinary Rare Book Donation
    State Library Victoria receives extraordinary rare book donation State Library Victoria receives the “most significant donation of rare books in its 160 year history” More than 5000 rare books estimated at over $5 million with an endowment of over $1.3 million State Library Victoria is honoured to receive one of the world’s great rare book collections from the late John Emmerson QC. An Oxford physicist and later a Melbourne barrister, John Emmerson dedicated over 40 years to amassing one of the most significant collections of early modern printed books and pamphlets in the world. The extraordinary collection encompasses more than 5000 rare printed books spanning over 400 years from the 15th to the 18th century, including political, religious, philosophical and literary works. Among the treasures are King Charles I’s own personal copy of his father King James’ writings, a 15th century Nuremburg bible belonging to Archbishop of Canterbury William Juxon (who offered last rites to King Charles I), some of the world’s earliest newspapers, and editions of many literary greats. This is considered to be one of the largest and most valuable collections of rare English books and printed materials surrounding the King Charles I era and the English Civil War of the 1640s, with the only comparable collections belonging to the British Library and Oxford’s Bodleian Library. State Library Victoria’s History of the Book Manager Des Cowley says: “The rare book collection donated by John Emmerson is quite simply the most significant ever received by the State Library in its 160 year history.” “From treasures that belonged to King Charles himself to pamphlets documenting his trial and execution, to illustrated early editions of works by John Milton and other literary greats, the collection is significant not just for the sheer quantity but the quality of the works – who they belonged to and how beautifully they’ve been maintained,” he says.
