Having added to it, Bradshaw generously presented the collection to the University Library in 1870, and it has been expanding ever since. Published in 1916, this three-volume catalogue was compiled by the bibliographer Charles Edward Sayle (1864–1924). The works listed here, numbering more than 8,000 items and dating from the early seventeenth century through to the late nineteenth century, represent a valuable resource for students of Irish history and printing. Sayle's catalogue reveals the breadth and richness of the collection at the time of publication. Volume 2 lists works printed in Dublin without a printer's name between 1652 and 1883; works printed in Irish provincial towns; those by Irish authors; and those relating to Ireland.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eBooks printed in Dublin without printer's name\u003cbr\u003e Irish authors\u003cbr\u003e Books relating to Ireland, in chronological order\u003cbr\u003e Appendices\u003cbr\u003e Additions\u003cbr\u003e Addenda\u003cbr\u003e Notes and corrigenda.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Literary studies: general [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary studies: general\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20studies:%20general%20%5BDSB%5D%22\"\u003eDSB\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46266183090456,"sku":"9781108073523","price":45.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781108073523i_7bdd8b4e-6758-4e5d-acae-8564147ae1d7.jpg?v=1696751463","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/a-catalogue-of-the-bradshaw-collection-of-irish-books-in-the-university-library-cambridge-paperback-9781108073523","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
