Abbey Books Exhibited
“The Printed Word
Prevails,” an exhibit of the
valuable books from the Abbot
Vincent Taylor Library of
Belmont Abbey College, will be
on display at the Mint Museum
of History, Shamrock Drive,
Charlotte, Oct. 15 through Jan.
21.
The books are arranged
chronologically, beginning with
the oldest book (1476) and
progressing through the
twentieth century. The
exhibition also includes clusters
of printing and binding
equipment, modern printed
forms, illustrations, types of
paper and end paper, etc.
“While it has been difficult
getting the exhibit ready, it has
also been challenging to present
six centuries of man’s printed
word,” commented Mrs. Jane
Freeman, director of learning
resources of the Abbot Vincent
Taylor Library and coordinator
of the exhibit. “Now that we
have the exhibit ready, the
breadth of the material is
astounding. We want to invite
everyone in the Metrolina area
to visit the Museum and see our
books.”
Only a small portion of the
Library’s valuable book
collection will be on display at
the Museum. The total
collection includes ap
proximately 10,000 volumes.
The origin of some of the
books is unknown. Many of
them were brought by the
Benedictine monks from
Latrobe, Pa., who founded both
the Monastery and the College.
Others have been donated by
friends of the College over the
years.
“We have all kinds of little
curiosities,” says Mrs.
Freeman. “I’ve never seen
anything like this, and I’ve been
in a lot of libraries. These books
are priceless.”
