We’re pleased to announce that the Z Collection at New College Library, which numbers\u00a0almost 5,000\u00a0Special Collections\u00a0items, has now been\u00a0completely catalogued online as part of the Funk Cataloguing Projects<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Z Collection is formed out of recent\u00a0donations and out of New College Library books formerly in the General Collections sequence which were identified as Special Collections\u00a0during a\u00a0stock management exercise. We follow the\u00a0criteria used by the Centre for Research Collections<\/a>\u00a0at the University of Edinburgh,\u00a0in particular\u00a0that all books published before 1850 should be classed as Special Collections.<\/p>\n

A big thank you to our Z Collection cataloguers, Janice Gailani, Finlay West and Patrick Murray.<\/p>\n
