Juvenilia Collection Showcase at Bath Library
Bath & North East Somerset Council, Bath Central Library, 19-23 The Podium, Bath, Somerset, BA1 5AN
Bath Library's Juvenilia collection was initially donated to the library in the 1950s. Today it is a large collection of children's literature which includes books, annuals, magazines, pamphlets and miniatures dating back to Victorian times with a few earlier examples.
The collection hasn't been open to the public in several years, so this is a rare opportunity to get up close to some of these unique and special books. The talk will focus on why we have a Juvenilia Collection and will highlight some of our favourite titles.
