Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book combines the collected writings and wisdom of the author who, in his capacity as Librarian to King Charles the First, was responsible for proposing and negotiating the acquisition and administration of the greatest library in the world at that time. In his writings, the author shares his experiences and insights into the motivations and aspirations that led to the foundation of this library and reveals the hidden politics and diplomacy that surrounded such an ambitious undertaking. Through his recollections of collecting on an unprecedented scale, the author has created a guide to the building of intellectual institutions, and his lessons on library creation are as relevant for libraries today as they were in his time. The author provides a thorough guide to the different kinds, contents and organisation of books and discusses the history and evolving purpose of libraries. He details the very human passions and struggles that have prevented and sustained the creation of these vital repositories of knowledge and enlightenment throughout history. This book is an essential reference for anyone passionate about the preservation and accessibility of knowledge.
