SLAVIC COLLECTION OF NORWICH UNIVERSITY

Description
The Slavic Collection of Norwich University is being offered for sale. The
collection consists of materials selected by the senior faculty of the
Russian School since 1958, and has been catalogued and maintained by the
Norwich University library since 1968.   Perhaps the collection's most
significant feature is its sustained focus on Russian language, literature,
linguistics, and culture.
The collection contains approximately 6,000 mostly Russian-language titles
(7,000 volumes), primarily in literature, language, linguistics, and
culture.  In addition, the offering includes a periodical collection
consisting of 35 titles - several with fairly long runs.  The collection is
available intact; its complete Library of Congress cataloguing is
additionally available.  The shelf list is available on request.

Condition of Collection
The books and periodicals have all been processed for library use and
therefore have the usual library markings on spines and within.  Several
sets are lacking some volumes.  Some books show heavy use, but the majority
of items are in either good or very good condition.

Appraised Value
The collection was appraised in May 2001 for $216,720. Reasonable offers
will be seriously considered.

Conditions of Sale
The collection is being offered in its entirety on site.  Catalog records
are being offered additionally.

Location and Contact
The Slavic Collection is housed on the fifth floor of the Kreitzberg
Library, where it may be viewed.   Contact:  Catherine Swenson, Acting
