The library of the Oxford University Museum of Natural History has a wealth of 19th to early 20th century entomological literature that is central to the development of entomology as an academic subject. Some of this literature also relates to specimens held in the Entomological Collections of the University Museum of Natural History, records and some images of which are available on line. The digitization of these key books and papers and their availability on the web through the ODL provides a very rich, immediate resource of rare items for scholars and researchers in entomology and the history of science.
