Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of library development across a range of national contexts. Beginning with the first recorded accounts in ancient Egypt, it traces the development of libraries through medieval monasticism to the role of philanthropy and mechanics institutes in the creation of public libraries in the 19th century. Throughout, the book emphasizes the role of libraries in fostering education and intellectual progress. The author's meticulous treatment of complex topics, including book collecting, cataloguing, and library design, attests to the time and energy scholars have devoted to understanding the library's role historically, and its contemporary significance as an institution that preserves history and fosters debate. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
