 Title:  Fifteenth annual report on historical collections, University of Virginia Library, for the year 1944-45  
 Published:  2006 
 Subjects:  University of Virginia Library, Modern English collection | UVA-LIB-Text 
 Description: TO understand the pursuit of collecting historical materials, both manuscripts and imprints, four parties must be considered. They may regard their activities, under varying circumstances, as hard-headed business or a fascinating game. Certain parties may be intense rivals at one time, or loyal partners at another. Self satisfaction and altruism are often motivating forces that work hand in hand because, whatever the immediate gain or advantage, there is an ultimate cultural objective that cannot honestly be gainsaid. In this perennial pursuit is there a winner? And if so, are the cards stacked in anyone's favor?
