Tim Pye - Libraries of the National Trust

Built up over generations, but often the first port of call for plundering when funds needed to be raised, the Trust’s surviving libraries provide unique access into the history of book ownership, the changing value of the written word, the fashions of collecting and the shifting fortunes of the great, good and not so good. Join Tim Pye, Libraries Curator for the National Trust, as he introduces these invaluable, yet neglected, historical gems.
