Earth Sciences Rare Book Collection
The Earth Sciences Rare Book Collection is an important research collection of rare and early geological and paleontological texts. The collection includes many seminal works from the 19th and early 20th centuries. It has particularly strong holdings of early paleontological works in English, French & German. The collection also includes significant runs of many early periodical titles.
The Earth Sciences Rare Book Collection has been relocated to climate controlled off-site storage facilities. For more information please contact Guido Tresoldi.
