Abstract
The University of Liverpool incunabula collection – comprising 315 editions, in 249 copies has now been entered into the Material Evidence in Incunabula database.
The majority of the incunabula held at the University of Liverpool were acquired thanks to the generosity of donors, during the first half of the 20th century. The largest single donation of incunabula was received in 1900, as part of a larger bequest of 2700 books and 21 medieval and renaissance manuscripts given to the University by Thomas Glazebrook Rylands (1818-1900).
