400 digitized rare books

The Rare Book Room presents about 400 of the world’s greatest books from a variety of libraries in high resolution format. For some samples, check out: Apianus (Astronomicum Caesareum); Blake (Songs of Innocence and Experience); Braccelli (Bizzarie di Varie Figure); Catesby (The Natural History of Carolina…); Dürer (De Symmetria…); Colonna (Hypnerotomachia Poliphili). And on and on. The interface is great (use arrow far left at top for larger page image) but there’s a slight browser resize in FFox. A couple of author names are placeholders for future uploads it seems.
