ABSTRACT
This chapter focuses on a single library in a specific century to make the scope of the argument more manageable. In the library, readers' notes and bookmarks are two kinds of waste which history has recycled into valuable primary sources as evidence of reading rather than mere ownership. The volume was then acquired by the Reverend Peter Hall, the most indefatigable of collectors of wiccamical association copies and presented to the library in 1815. The Library subscribed to Kennicott's Vetus testamentum Hebraicum, cum Variis Lectionibus. The Fellows' Library has six boxes which were constructed in the eighteenth century to hold specific legal documents relating to land the college owned. Perhaps the most remarkable instance in the Winchester Fellows' Library of an eighteenth-century manifestation of recycling is to be found in a manuscript Bible. Indeed Ker thought it to be unique in that it is a fifteenth-century Bible which appears to have been written in England.
