Abstract:
Shortly after his retirement from medical practice in 1920, Dr. Casey Albert Wood (1856–1942), a Canadian-born medical doctor, founded the Emma Shearer Wood Library of Ornithology and the Blacker Library of Zoology at McGill University. These libraries eventually merged to form the Blacker Wood Library of Ornithology and Zoology, which is now the Blacker Wood Natural History Collection. I first encountered this remarkable collection and its long-serving librarian Eleanor MacLean (1947–2018) in the early 1990s. For thirty years, until her retirement in 2011, MacLean had ensured that researchers

Abstract:
The world-renowned physician, bibliophile, and McGill alumnus Sir William Osler (1849-1919) wrote that “a library represents the mind of its collector, his fancies and foibles, his strength and weakness, his prejudices and preferences.”[1] His own collection of medical and related works formed the nucleus of McGill’s Osler Library of the History of Medicine. Opened in 1929, the Osler Library is renowned for both its collection and the preservation of its founder’s memory and ethos. In 1920 Dr Casey Wood (1856-1942), a friend and contemporary of Osler’s, created the Wood Library of Ornithology

As part of a themed print issue of the Papers of the Bibliographical Society of Canada dedicated to the life and work of Dr. Casey A. Wood, this article offers a selection of letters, written by Wood, from the ample correspondence preserved in his archival collections at the McGill Library in Montreal. The letters selected for this article express Wood’s philosophy of the ideal natural history research library; his approach to collection development, donor relations, and the book trade; and his ability to predict what future researchers would find valuable.

Abstract:
After he retired from his career as an ophthalmologist in 1920, Dr Casey Wood devoted himself to his two private passions – ornithology and book collecting. He attended auctions, badgered book dealers, and haunted bookshops wherever he travelled with his wife Emma Shearer Wood. In 1926 Wood turned to Wheldon and Wesley and their agent, William John Henry Craddock (1870-1941), to help him acquire a magnificent collection held by the bookseller Quaritch of over 900 large, colourful and often life-size drawings of exotic birds, animals and fish, and equally imposing images of flowers, insects, an

Abstract:
Casey Wood's retirement allowed him time to expand his horizons, both in terms of his travel and the scope of his intellectual enquiries. His ornithological interests in Fiji in the South Pacific and Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) in South Asia led him to fund the production of two large-scale collections of paintings illustrating the birds of these two islands. Both original collections were reserved for the Blacker-Wood library, but in Ceylon, these paintings also formed the basis of The Coloured Plates of the Birds of Ceylon, published between 1927 and 1935. In Ceylon and Kashmir, Wood collected ma

Abstract By the middle of the nineteenth century systematics no longer constituted the cutting edge of natural history. As William Jardine, the editor of the Naturalist’s Library, an influential series of zoology guides, put it, ‘the age of superstitious reverence for categories ... has long passed away’.’ Black-boxed and metonymized in the person of Linnaeus, classification had, in fact, come to occupy a somewhat unenviable position in the view of the two major audiences for zoology and botany.

Abstract:
Scientists who take care of the artistic form of their works by themselves are a rare phenomenon, which we can sometimes notice in the very heterogeneous book art of Polish modernism. This phenomenon can be seen as a continuation of an old tradition of art seen as an instrument of knowledge and it could be implemented in different ways. A philosopher and artist Marian Olszewski (1881–1915) decorated his book on epistemology with representations of mussels, which were faithfully reproduced but completely irrelevant to the text. This was an exceptional case; quite differently, Michał Siedlecki (
