Acknowledgements

BOO has been made possible by grants from the Bibliographical Society, and the Lyell Fund, the Bodleian Library, University of Oxford, to whom we are very grateful.

Countless librarians and custodians over many years have helped in the putting together of the information in BOO, by providing access to their collections, and they have all played a part in making this resource possible.

We are also grateful to the following libraries for agreeing to allow images from their books to be used on BOO, without charge:

The British Library The British Museum, Dept of Prints & Drawings Durham University Library Malbeth Palace Library Lincoln College, Oxford Magdalen College, Oxford The National Trust Pembroke College, Cambridge The Plume Library, Maldon The Robinson Library, Armagh The Royal College of Physicians of London Senate House Library, University of London
