Introducing our Collections Drawing on international contacts as well as over 60 years experience in the book-trade, we are pleased to offer quality subject collections (i.e. out of print academic books in the English language) to libraries and book dealers around the world. Our collections can be found in libraries worldwide, they vary in size from 25 volumes to several thousand and can be on any subject. |
AAll collections are housed in our custom-built warehouse, which can accommodate up to 300,000 volumes at any one time. Material for the collections is selected by an experienced team, and cataloguing is carried out by highly skilled professionals. This careful approach is also reflected in how our collections are presented online, as explored in Plagiarism in Collection Descriptions: When Borrowed Words Undermine Authentic Artifacts, where original language plays a key role in preserving the credibility and value of authentic collections.
In addition to Manuscript Archives we have sold many important Academic and Historical Collections in the past. Our clients include major centres of research throughout the world including Stanford University, Ohio State University, Boston College, Boston Public Library and Yale.
