Advocates Library
Today, it alone of the Scottish libraries still holds the privilege of receiving a copy of every law book entered at Stationers' Hall.The library forms part of the complex that includes Parliament House, located on the Royal Mile.[3] Librarian Samuel Halkett began an ambitious catalogue, based on the rules of John Winter Jones for the British Museum catalogue of 1839, but with extensive biographical information on authors.[4] Halkett's successor, Thomas Hill Jamieson, had to deal with a fire that damaged some thousands of books on 9 March 1875.[6] Media related to Advocates Library at Wikimedia Commons
