This week I finished the transcription of all the loans at the Bristol Library Society between 1773 & 1795: 11 volumes of registers, 6 microfilms, 30,402 loans. Plenty for me to write and think about. In due course, everyone can view the data online via @C18thLibraries.
Samuel Coleridge and Robert Southey borrowed books together at the Bristol Library Society. On 1 June 1795, they checked out vols. 1&2 of the Prussian Biblical scholar John David Michaelis's Introduction to the New Testament, translated from German into English by Herbert Marsh.
On 6 April 1795, Robert Southey signed for himself and for William Coleridge when he checked out Robert Burn's Poems, Chiefly in the Scottish Dialect (1787) and the first volume of William Robertson's History of the Reign of Charles V (1769).
Samuel Coleridge and Robert Southey sometimes borrowed books together at the Bristol Library Society in the 1790s. On 20 April 1795, they borrowed volumes one and two of Gilbert Burnet's History of His Own Times.
Samuel Coleridge's first loan at the Bristol Library Society on 2 March 1795: volume three of "Poetical Tracts", a composite volume bound by the library which included Hannah More's and Ann Yearsley's poems on slavery, among others poems.
The Romantic poet Robert Southey's first loan at the Bristol Library Society: on 22 Oct 1793, Southey checked out the first volume of William Enfield's History of Philosophy from the Earliest Periods (1791). @BristolLibrary @C18thLibraries
