Gives a history of British circulating libraries through the use of the Papantonio collection of library book labels and book related ephemera of the eighteenth and nineteenth century by the noted English collector Sir Ambrose Heal.

With related information on the printers, booksellers, engravers and bookbinders of the period. Illustrations of sixty-four labels, trade cards and prints are included.
