Crawford Astronomy Collection
(ROE)
-
The Royal Observatory, Edinburgh, possesses one of the most comprehensive
collections of astronomical literature in existence. The library system, which
serves the professional community, comprises the Crawford Library, Main Library
and Archives. The Main Library holds twentieth century material covering
all fields of astronomy. Supporting subjects are represented by a
select stock of works on physics, electronics and computing. All
post-1973 publications are available through the Library's on line catalogue.
The Observatory Archives comprise the notebooks, correspondence and other papers
of the former Astronomical Institution of Edinburgh, Astronomers Royal for
Scotland, and the 26th Earl of Crawford. The collection which
includes early instruments, equipment and photographic material, has been sorted
and indexed. The Crawford Library contains some 15,000 books, pamphlets
and manuscripts dating from the thirteenth century to the end
of the nineteenth century. The collection was brought together by
the 26th Earl of Crawford from his family library, the
library of Charles Babbage and purchases of rare books from
booksales throughout Europe. The Library contains first editions of all
major works in the history of astronomy and related fields.
It is recognised as a rich resource for scholars, historians
of science and bibliographers and is visited by researchers from
all over the world.
