Spotlight on an RBR exhibit item: Do you write in your textbooks? Over 250 years ago, the owner of this copy of Richard Burn’s Justice of the Peace (London 1755) wrote in the margins—and bound in extra pages in the back for making more annotations! #rarebooks #legalhistory #lawlibrary

Two Auction Catalogs

Rare Book Room exhibit spotlight: two auction catalogs for lawyers’ libraries—England 1799 & Boston 1909. Since our collection focuses on books used by working lawyers, catalogs like these are invaluable resources—direct evidence of what actual lawyers had in their own collections. #rarebooks #legalhistory #lawlibrary
