Libraries don’t just house books but also archives and collections.
It’s in these that we, the reader, can see the process of the author – and what ideas shaped them
More often than not, libraries collect and organise works of human creativity, intellect and industry.
They are repositories of finished works.
Books and recordings, films and magazines and many more – all discrete units of human creation.
Archives, in contrast, provide us with the backdrop to the works, the settings, the background, and the working out of ideas from which a job may have come.
