Book Description
The UBC Library houses several collections of old, rare, and significant children's books, now totalling some ten thousand items. Books That Shaped Our Minds is a fully annotated listing of three hundred and sixty-four treasures primarily from Britain and the United States. They were chosen and arranged to document the effect of particular works on the psyche and the sociology of the child from the late seventeenth century to the present. Independently, the books described are pieces of social history. Taken together, the notes in the catalogue constitute a narraive history of the books that have formed young minds for centuries. In conjunction with the same compilers' previously published Canadian Children's Books, 1799-1939, this catalogue permits a comprehensive and comparative view of the development of English-language books for children.

Book Description
In fall 1996, the Cotsen staff began compiling a multi-volume book catalogue of the research collection, with support from the Department of Rare Books and Special Collections and the Technical Services Department of the Princeton University Library. When complete, this catalogue will describe that portion of the non-circulating collection of printed books which the donor Lloyd E. Cotsen has gifted to Princeton University up to the year 2000. The material will comprise approximately 23,000 items out of a total of over 60,000 in over thirty languages published during the fifteenth through twentieth centuries. Two volumes of the catalogue have been completed thus far. In May 2000, volume I, the twentieth century A-L, was published, and in December 2003, volume II, the twentieth century M-Z. 12,403 books are described there, with detailed notes on their illustrations, contents, bindings, and previous owners. As so many children's books appear without dates of publication on their title pages, every attempt has been made to assign an accurate date of issue based on internal evidence and authoritative reference sources in print and on-line. Designed by Mark Argetsinger, the text of each volume is lavishly illustrated with over one hundred and fifty illustrations in duotone and process color and printed on Mohawk Superfine paper. The volumes are bound in olive green Japanese cloth with the front covers stamped in gold and full-color patterned endpapers.
