The Bodleian Library Record (BLR)

The Bodleian Library Record (BLR) is the journal of the Bodleian Libraries. First published in 1914 (as The Bodleian Library Quarterly), it fulfils two roles, serving both as a scholarly journal for articles based on research in the Bodleian's collections and those of other Oxford libraries, and as a record of significant developments in the Library. It is published twice a year. All submitted articles are subject to peer review. The BLR is committed to the publication of research which enhances scholarship and extends understanding of the collections, raising issues of interest to bibliophiles, librarians and Friends of the Bodleian, and those Sir Thomas Bodley called the 'Republic of the Learned'. It also includes short articles on acquisitions to the Bodleian Library collections and reviews of its exhibitions and publications. All scholars working on material in Oxford library collections and seeking publication of articles or shorter pieces based on their research are encouraged to contact the Editor. THE BODLEIAN LIBRARY RECORD publishes articles and shorter pieces which are based on research in the Bodleian’s collections and those of other Oxford libraries. The acceptance of submitted material is the responsibility of the Editor, Bryan Ward-Perkins, and the Editorial Committee. Scholars working on material in Oxford library collections and seeking publication of articles or shorter pieces based on their research are encouraged to contact the Editor at bryan.ward-perkins@trinity.ox.ac.uk, and to send all other enquiries to the Head of Publishing at the Bodleian Library publishing@bodleian.ox.ac.uk.
