We’re pleased to announce that the Z Collection at New College Library, which numbers almost 5,000 Special Collections items, has now been completely catalogued online as part of the Funk Cataloguing Projects.

The Z Collection is formed out of recent donations and out of New College Library books formerly in the General Collections sequence which were identified as Special Collections during a stock management exercise. We follow the criteria used by the Centre for Research Collections at the University of Edinburgh, in particular that all books published before 1850 should be classed as Special Collections.

A big thank you to our Z Collection cataloguers, Janice Gailani, Finlay West and Patrick Murray.
