The Freer|Sackler Library's collection of Japanese rare books
Over 1,000 volumes previously owned by Charles
Lang Freer. It has beautiful, handmade works of art,
many with color illustrations or by famous artists,
published during the Edo and early Meiji periods
(1600-1868 and 1868-1912). It is a complement to the
2,028 recently digitized volumes (2014) in the
Gerhard Pulverer Collection of Illustrated Japanese
Books, one of the most important collections of
Japanese illustrated books in the world, held by the
Freer Gallery of Art and Arthur M. Sackler Gallery.
The Library's collections are being digitized, with
funding from the Freer|Sackler, with the aim of
creating an online resource offering all the
Smithsonian's Japanese illustrated books for use by
scholars and art enthusiasts alike.

Smithsonian Collections Online: Trade Literature & the Merchandizing of
Industry. This collection, covering 1820 to 1926, allows researchers to

techniques, and examine illustrations of the items used at home and in
business. The collection exposes technological advances, architectural
advances, societal changes, and business history in a way that reveals vital
aspects of American culture, society, and history; it contains 22,132 items.

“The cultivation of
natural history cannot
be efficiently carried
out without reference
to an extensive
library.”
Charles Darwin, et al (1847)

Much of this literature is
available in only a few select
libraries in the developed
world. Lack of literature is a
major impediment to the
efficiency of scientific
research.
