New York The Grolier Club 1999 8.5 x 11 inches paperback 270 pages
The Grolier Club and the Herzog August Bibliotheck of Northern Germany share similar traditions and goals.

This catalogue describes the importance and influences of the time and the area. It is richly illustrated with color and black-and-white images and was designed by Jörg Prengel. It was printed by Schäferart, Hanover, Germany.

New Castle, Delaware, and London, England Oak Knoll Press and The British Library 2009 7.5 x 9.75 inches Hardcover, 2 volumes 1,876 pages in 2 volumes, plus index on CD-ROM
This superbly comprehensive and detailed bibliography of the British book trade, the product of research in over three hundred libraries in the UK and USA, supersedes all bibliographies on British authors and authorship, bibliography itself, book collecting, bookbinding, book illustration, bookselling, censorship, copyright, libraries, literacy, papermaking, printing, publishing, textual criticism, and typography until 1890. More than 24,000 items (notably articles in trade journals) are lightly annotated and arranged in classified chronological order to illustrate the social and technological development of British book crafts and industries. Items are minutely indexed on the accompanying CD-ROM. Large areas of the history and practices of the British book trades are opened to scholarly study for the first time. British Book Trade, 1475-1890 belongs in every research library: no-one who works in the fields of British literature, bibliography, or book trade history should neglect this work.

Trevor Howard-Hill is Distinguished Professor of English Emeritus at the University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC. Besides his many publications on Shakespearean texts, Renaissance dramatic manuscripts, and textual scholarship are eight volumes of the Index of British Literary Bibliography (Oxford 1969-99).

  (Incunabula) Goff, Frederick R. INCUNABULA IN AMERICAN LIBRARIES, A SUPPLEMENT TO THE THIRD CENSUS OF FIFTEENTH-CENTURY BOOKS RECORDED IN NORTH AMERICAN COLLECTIONS (1964).
New York The Bibliographical Society of America 1972 tall 8vo. cloth. xii, 104 pages.
This supplement is essential to anyone possessing the THIRD CENSUS OF INCUNABULA IN AMERICAN LIBRARIES which was published in 1964. According to Frederick R. Goff, despite the publication of the THIRD CENSUS, new acquisitions and changes in ownership were being reported at an astonishing rate prior to this date. A table included in the introduction to the THIRD CENSUS shows that 3,560 additions alone were made in 1971 compared to 11,956 entries made between the years 1940 and 1964. As a result, roughly much more than one-third of the estimated output of the printing presses operating in the fifteenth century was now available for research in America.
Though Goff admits that some books, those found in the stock
of American antiquarian booksellers' stock may have been returned to Europe, he asserts that it is safe to say that the total number in American ownership is far in excess of 50,000 and that probably less than one percent of the incunabula in American ownership have escaped the dragnet of the three previous Censuses and this supplement.
Goff has taken the opportunity in this supplement to correct
a number of errors and misprints found in the previous Censuses. He states that his methodology is quite simple. For corrections in authorship, title-entry or imprint, the present THIRD CENSUS number is cited followed by an "N.B:," which furnishes additional or revised information. Additional references or corrections to earlier citations follow the abbreviation "Ref:." New copies or changes in ownership follow the abbreviation "Cop:," using the symbols of the 1964 CENSUS or new ones found in the supplementary register of owners not previously recorded. For a number of dealers who reported only one or two titles, their full names appear since Goff decided not to include them in the register of owners. When a registrant has added or disposed of a second copy or has acquired additional volumes of multi-volume set, the owner's initials are given and the revised information is given in parenthesis following immediately afterwards.
This supplement together with the 1964 Census now stands as a
more accurate and reliable record. In a Postscript added to this supplement's introduction, Goff writes of additional reports that bring the total number of incunabula up to 51,147, incrementing the previous number by 397, which are incorporated in this supplement. Edge of cover and book block bumped along back cover.
