Introduction to The Library
These pages are currently under development. Please contact JIM WILSON at james@swedenborg.org.uk for specific enquiries.
The Library section of The Swedenborg Society website has been designed for the researcher/enquirer wishing to gain information regarding the holdings available at The Swedenborg Society.
Whilst the holdings themselves will not be made available online, enquiries and requests can be made via e-mail. The Librarian will then deal with the request and where possible the document, etc., will be copied and sent back via e-mail; if the document is too large or difficult, it will be photocopied and posted.
Contents:
Please see below for a guide to using the Library Catalogue.
Please note:
- It may be necessary to visit the Library in person when items can be made available.
- Proof of identity and a note of research specifications must be supplied upon request.
- None of The Society's current holdings can be permitted to leave the premises.
- Photocopying will be charged at £0.10 per A4 sheet. The Librarian may also recommend relevant publications available from The Society's bookshop.
Using the Library Catalogue
The Swedenborg Society Library is divided into three main sections listed above right. Each of these sections is further broken down into sub-sections. When entry has been made into the catalogue a list of options is made available to the researcher.
If the researcher clicks on one of the highlighted titles above, access is gained to further subsection titles and a brief description of the subsection holding is given. When a subsection title is selected access is then provided to the catalogue's holding. Once access has been gained to the Society's holdings a list of items appears in either chronological or alphabetical order.
If you wish to view an item in the Library please contact the Librarian using the Library request form.
