This year's annual conference on book trade history will trace individual copies and their movement in and out of collections and across international frontiers, exploring aspects of the history of provenance and book ownership.

The speakers

Astrid C. Balsem is associate curator of Special Collections in Amsterdam University Library. She is currently working on a thesis on the Bibliotheca Vossiana, now in Leiden University Library.

Dr Peter Beal FBA is author of the Index of English Literary Manuscripts 1450-1700 (1980-93), In Praise of Scribes: Manuscripts and their Makers in Seventeenth-Century England (1998) and of numerous articles in this field. For more than 25 years, he was English Manuscripts Expert at Sotheby's, where he is now a consultant. As a Senior Research Fellow at the Institute of English Studies, University of London, he is engaged in a five-year AHRC-funded project to compile CELM (Catalogue of English Literary Manuscripts 1450-1700), a database based partly on his earlier Index.

Pierre Delsaerdt teaches book and library history at the universities of Antwerp and Leuven. His dissertation on the book trade and private libraries at Leuven University was published in 2001 (Suam Quisque Bibliothecam. Boekhandel en particulier boekenbezit aan de oude Leuvense Universiteit, 16de-18de eeuw). He is president of the Flemish Working Group on Book History (Vlaamse Werkgroep Boekgeschiedenis) and editor of the Antwerp bibliographical journal De Gulden Passer.

Cristina Dondi was Lyell Research Fellow in the History of the Early Modern Printed Book, University of Oxford, 2002-2005, and is one of the editors of the recently published Bodleian Library catalogue of incunabula. Her research focuses on the history of printing in Italy in the fifteenth century and on liturgical texts, both manuscript and printed.

Angela Nuovo teaches bibliography and library science at the University of Udine. Her main research is focused on the book trade and reading in the Italian Renaissance. Her most recent monographs are Il commercio librario nell’Italia del Rinascimento (2003) and, together with Christian Coppens, I Giolito e la stampa nell’Italia del XVI secolo (2005). She is presently working on a study of Gian Vincenzo Pinelli’s library in the context of private libraries in 16th-century Italy. She founded and still maintains the web-site: Il libro antico (http://web.uniud.it/libroantico/).

David Pearson is Director, University of London Research Library Services, and has worked in various academic and research libraries. He has published numerous books and articles relating to ownership, bookbinding and other aspects of the post-production history of books, including Provenance research in book history (1994) and English bookbinding styles 1450-1800 (2005), and is currently working on 17th-century English private libraries.
