  • Collection Development Policy Statement Rare Books Collection Subject Specialist Responsible
    Collection Development Policy Statement Rare Books Collection Subject Specialist responsible: Doug McElrath, 301‐405‐9210, [email protected] I. Purpose The Rare Books Collection in the University of Maryland Libraries preserves physical evidence of the most successful format for recording and disseminating human knowledge: the printed codex. From the invention of printing with movable type in Asia to its widespread adoption and explosive growth in 15th century Europe, the printed book in all its forms has had an inestimable impact on the way information has been organized, spread, and consumed. The invention of printing is one of the critical technological advances that made possible the modern world. At the University of Maryland, the Rare Books Collection serves multiple purposes: As a teaching collection that preserves physical examples of the way the book has evolved over the centuries, from a hand‐crafted artifact to a mass‐produced consumable. As a research collection for targeted concentrations of printed text supporting scholarly investigation (see collection scope below). As an historical repository for outstanding examples of human accomplishment as preserved in printed formats, including seminal works in the arts, humanities, social sciences, physical and biological sciences. As a research repository for noteworthy examples of the art and craft of the book: typography, bindings, paper making, illustration, etc. As a secure storehouse for works that because of their scarcity, fragility, age, ephemerality, provenance, controversial content, or high monetary value are not appropriate for the general circulating collection. The Rare Books Collection seeks to enable researchers to interact with the physical artifact as much as possible.

  • Printing Presses in the Graphic Arts Collection
    Printing Presses in the Graphic Arts Collection THE NATIONAL MUSEUM OF AMERICAN HISTORY 1996 This page blank Printing Presses in the Graphic Arts Collection PRINTING, EMBOSSING, STAMPING AND DUPLICATING DEVICES Elizabeth M. Harris THE NATIONAL MUSEUM OF AMERICAN HISTORY, SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION WASHINGTON D.C. 1996 Copies of this catalog may be obtained from the Graphic Arts Office, NMAH 5703, Smithsonian Institution, Washington D.C. 20560 Contents Type presses wooden hand presses 7 iron hand presses 18 platen jobbers 29 card and tabletop presses 37 galley proof and hand cylinder presses 47 printing machines 50 Lithographic presses 55 Copperplate presses 61 Braille printers 64 Copying devices, stamps 68 Index 75 This page blank Introduction This catalog covers printing apparatus from presses to rubber stamps, as well as some documentary material relating to presses, in the Graphic Arts Collection of the National Museum of American History. Not listed here are presses outside the accessioned collections, such as two Vandercook proof presses (a Model 4T and a Universal III) that are now earning an honest living in the office printing shop. At some future time, no doubt, they too will be retired into the collections. The Division of Graphic Arts was established in 1886 as a special kind of print collection with the purpose of representing “art as an industry.” For many years collecting was centered around prints, together with the plates and tools that made them. Not until the middle of the twentieth century did the Division begin to collect printing presses systematically. Even more recently, the scope of collecting has been broadened to include printing type and type-making apparatus.

  • Library of Congress Collection Overviews: Rare Books
    COLLECTION OVERVIEW RARE BOOKS I. SCOPE This overview describes the holdings of the Rare Books and Special Collections Division (RBSCD)of the Library of Congress. It excludes rare books and manuscripts in the custody of other Library divisions, such as the Music Division, the Asian Division, or the African and Middle Eastern Division. In general, all materials printed before 1801 fall into the scope of RBSCD. Although the division’s materials come into its custody for a variety of reasons – age, rarity, monetary value, importance in the history of printing, historic binding, provenance or association interest, fragility, uniqueness or scarcity – they have one point in common: the collections document at a research level the traditions of thought and learning and the social life and customs of Europe and the Americas. II. SIZE The Rare Book and Special Collections Division's holdings amount to approximately 800,000 books, broadsides, pamphlets, theater programs and playbills, title pages, prints, posters, photographs, and medieval and Renaissance manuscripts. III. GENERAL RESEARCH STRENGTHS The Division selects rare materials and special collections covering all eras and subjects, focusing on original printed sources in the following areas: the fifteenth-century book and the history of printing, European social and intellectual history, the Reformation, the history of science, travels and voyages, the illustrated book, Mesoamerica and the encounter, Americana, selected English and American authors, the fine press tradition, the contemporary artist’s book, subject themes and formats such as gastronomy and magic, and special format books such as miniature books. Criteria for the selection of rare materials and special collections include especially their long-term scholarly importance and their value as editions of a given work.

  • Rare Books and Special Collections Collection Development Policy January 2020 I. Introduction Rare Books and Special Collections
    Rare Books and Special Collections Collection Development Policy January 2020 I. Introduction Rare Books and Special Collections at Northern Illinois University Library includes those materials that, because of subject coverage, rarity, source, condition, or form, are best handled separately from the General Collection. The primary materials held in RBSC are an integral part of the educational experience, in keeping with the public research and teaching missions of Northern Illinois University. We provide students, faculty, staff, and individual users from the general public at all levels an opportunity to interact with hands-on history, and to perform in- depth research, particularly in areas related to popular culture in the United States. The nature, extent, and depth of the collection have grown with that purpose to date, although the nature of the collections is always subject to review and extension depending on the research needs of the entire community. II. Criteria for Consideration for Inclusion in the Rare Books Collection (over 10,300 vols.) All inclusion decisions are ultimately made by the Curator on a case-by-case basis. Materials that meet these guidelines are not guaranteed to be accepted into the Rare Books Collection; the Curator may opt not to add particular items due to condition, space issues, or other considerations. A. Date of Publication. The simplest general guideline for materials to be included is the publication date of the book. The cut-off dates for inclusion of material with various imprints are listed below with a brief explanation of the choice of date: 1. European publications before 1801. Teaching examples of representative types of publications from this period should be sought after (i.e.
