Support our collections
Since 2009 our Fellows, Friends and Corporate Patrons have generously donated over £20,000 to conserve and digitise some of the earliest material from the Society's collections. On these pages you can find out more about supporting the Library through our appeals, and about some of our completed conservation campaigns.
