Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of a Collection of Early Printed Books in the Library of the Royal Society John Evelyn, in his Diary, states that it was at his instigation that Henry Howard presented the collection to the Royal Society. This gentleman, as Evelyn says, had so little inclination to books, that it was the preservation of them from embezzlement. A further entry of Evelyn's, dated 29 August 1678, gives an account of his receipt of the collection on behalf of the Society. I procured for our Society, he says, besides printed books, near one hundred mss., some in Greek of great concernment. The printed books being of the oldest impressions, are not the less valuable; I esteem them almost equal to mss. Many of these books had been presented by Popes, Cardinals, and great persons, to the Earls of Arundel and the Dukes of Norfolk; and the late magnificent Earl of Arundel bought a noble library in Germany, which is in this collection. I should not, for the honour I bear the family, have persuaded the Duke to part with these, had I not seen how negligent he was of them, suffering the priests and everybody to carry away and dispose of What they pleased so that abundance of rare things are irrecoverably gone. In 1830 the Royal Society, with a view to increasing the scientific resources of their library, disposed of the greater part of the mss. In the collection to the Trustees of the British Museum.
