DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom the archives of the Library of Congress: “An irresistible treasury for book and library lovers.” —Booklist (starred review) The Library of Congress brings book lovers an enriching tribute to the power of the written word and to the history of our most beloved books. Featuring more than two hundred full-color images of original catalog cards, first edition book covers, and photographs from the library’s magnificent archives, this collection is a visual celebration of the rarely seen treasures in one of the world’s most famous libraries and the brilliant catalog system that has kept it organized for hundreds of years. Packed with engaging facts on literary classics—from Ulysses to The Cat in the Hat to Shakespeare’s First Folio to The Catcher in the Rye—this is an ode to the enduring magic and importance of books. “The Card Catalog is many things: a lucid overview of the history of bibliographic practices, a paean to the Library of Congress, a memento of the cherished card catalogs of yore, and an illustrated collection of bookish trivia . . . . The illustrations are amazing: luscious reproductions of dozens of cards, lists, covers, title pages, and other images guaranteed to bring a wistful gleam to the book nerd’s eye.” —The Washington Post

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Royal Society came into being in late November 1660, intended for the promoting of experimental learning. This its members proposed to do by means of weekly meetings in which there should be discussion, accounts of experiments or presentation of papers, and performances of experiments. In almost every way its aims and functions were the very opposite of academic bookishness, its intention being that members should accept nothing as true but what they could see and touch. Yet within a few months Fellows were expressing their need for a library which has been maintained from the Society's earliest years.
