Das British Library-Youtube-Video “Sir Walter Scott in the Blavatnik Honresfield Library” zeigt die Präsenz von Sir Walter Scott in der Sammlung Blavatnik Honresfield Library und erklärt, wie die National Library of Scotland die Sammlung pflegen:
“Last year, one of the most significant literary collections in the UK’s history was purchased for the nation by the Friends of the National Libraries.
The Blavatnik Honresfield Library contains important manuscripts and rare editions of works by Jane Austen, Robert Burns, Sir Walter Scott and the Brontë siblings. For the first time in almost a century, these works are now accessible to the public, having been distributed to cultural institutions across the UK.
