 Late 19th- and early 20th- century children's books are the subjects
of this print from the Bodleian Libraries. Richly illustrated covers in
bright reds, blues and greens adorn the rows of shelves, featuring
titles such as Little Miss Sunshine, No Ordinary Girl and A Girl of
High Adventure. They are all light-hearted tales with brave female
characters that can be found within the Bodleian Library, which is
one of the oldest libraries in Europe. During his retirement Sir
Thomas Bodley decided to return the library to public use and in
1598 refurnished it to house approximately 2,500 books. The doors
first opened to scholars in 1602 and in 1610 Bodley agreed with the
Stationers' Company of London that a copy of every book published
in England would be held in the library. Since then many extensions
and buildings have been added and together the Bodleian Libraries
now house over 12 million printed items.
