OF MULTIPLYING COPIES AND EDITIONS
Hov many copies of the same "book should
a library have? The answer depends on function
and policy. The commercial circulating library
in Great Britain used to buy virtually whole
editions of popular novels to rent out to
readers. Eapid obsolescence would be the rule
here, and the library would have to be continually
renewing itself. At the opposite extreme would be
the collection of superlative rarities -- say the
fifteenth century books in the Huntington Library
-- which would focus on one copy of each edition
or issue. In such a library there would be no such
thing as obsolescence, and, short of physical destruc-
tion, there would be continuous increase in value. A
curious and even extravagant kind of duplication is devel-
oping in some collections of this kind: one library, for
example, has been buying all available first editions of
Milton, in search of typographical variants. This
might be called the bibliographical limit.
The middle way for Fondren would seem to be
to undertake only in a limited way the provision
of duplicate copies for routine course work (that
is the mode of the circulating library), and on
the other hand not to play for rarity as such, but
to see that the representation of significant works
on our shelves should be bibliographically com-
prehensive.
This overlaps with the discussion of
the uses of first editions in a recent issue
8,
of the FLYLEAF, but it extends the principle
and gives it a somevhat different application.
The first edition may be conceived of as the
first of a series of "states" of the work, many
of which it might be useful or important for
the student to have . We should not aim at a
collection of all the editions of The Vicar of
Wakefield or The Compleat Angler , though some
have enjoyed making such a collection. But
duplication or multiplication in the sense of
having various or numerous editions is desirable.
Editions controlled by the author during his
lifetime are essential — not just the first and
the last of such editions . In his talk to the
Friends, Willard Thorp cited Whitman's Leaves
of Grass as a striking example of an important
work with major textual changes from edition to
edition. After the author signs off, our
theoretical series of editions may still be of
great value as showing what the publishers and
editors have done.
In constructing such a series gifts
from private libraries are appropriate and
helpful. Apparent duplication may not be
real duplication; an unconsidered and obscure
edition may fill a gap, or two copies that appear
superficially to be identical may disclose
important variants. And apart from biblio-
graphical points, a series of well selected and
representative editions covering a considerable
period of time and varying in format and makeup
will help to give the student historical pers-
pective.
