Re- my message posted a couple of days ago offering a collection
of Spanish Civil War books:
I had not expected such an amazing response. I have already had
11 institutions wanting some or all of these books. This puts me
in the rather awkward position of having to choose between you.
For the moment I suggest that you peruse (what I hope is) the
full list attached and think about how much of it you want. A
couple of words of warning: the full bibliographic details have
not downloaded so what may appear to be three versions of the
same title will almost certainly be different volumes; and there
are a few books at the beginning of the list which are about the
pre-Civil War period.
I am inclined to let the British Library have first refusal on
the titles that they actually want, this was only two titles on
the original sample list that I sent out which would leave plenty
for other institutions if the full list is cherry picked in a
similar way. Perhaps then I could select from between you a
library that was willing to take all of the remainder and arrange
and pay for the collection of the boxes.
Let me know.
