The Centre
for the Study of the Book provides a common ground for scholars and
librarians with shared interests in understanding, documenting, and
interpreting the intellectual and material history of the book.
Please use the index to the left to find information about the events
and projects sponsored by the Centre, and news about lectures, seminars,

The aim of the Centre for the Study of the Book is to enrich access to collections of books by fostering
research that crosses academic and professional specialisms, and by promoting this
research through innovative projects, public programmes, and digital developments.
The Centre will collaborate with similar institutions in activities to coordinate cataloguing, digitisation, and conservation projects.

Centre funds will also support visiting fellowships and curatorial exchanges between partner institutions.
