	Britain.tv Wikipedia - Library
		Libraries were filled with parchment scrolls as at Pergamum and on papyrus scrolls as at Alexandria: export of prepared writing materials was a staple of commerce.
		Research libraries are most often academic libraries or national libraries, but many large special libraries have research libraries within their special field and a very few of the largest public libraries also serve as research libraries.
		Libraries have materials arranged in a specified order according to a library classification system, so that items may be located quickly and collections may be browsed efficiently.

	Informat.io on Leiden
		Leiden is also known as one of the places where some of the Pilgrims (as well as some of the first settlers of New Amsterdam) [1] [2] lived for a time in the early 17th century before their departure to the New World [3].
		The population of Leiden which, it is estimated, reached 100,000 in 1640, had sunk to 30,000 between 1796 and 1811, and in 1904 was 56,044.
		The University of Leiden is famous for its many developments including the famous Leyden jar, a capacitor made from a glass jar, invented in Leiden by Pieter van Musschenbroek in 1746.

		Basic tasks in library management include the planning of acquisitions (which materials the library should acquire, by purchase or otherwise), library classification of acquired materials, preservation of materials (especially rare and fragile archival materials such as manuscripts), patron borrowing of materials, and developing and administering library computer systems.

	The Churches of Leiden (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The English Reformed church was composed of merchants, scholars, and soldiers garrisoned in Leiden as part of the hundreds of English troops fighting with the Dutch against Spain.
		The loose connection of this English congregation with the Church of England is indicated by the fact that Goodyear's ordination came at the hands of two Reformed friends in Leiden rather than from an Anglican bishop.
		Leiden's English church later moved to the Jerusalem's Chapel (no longer standing) and then to the front ground-floor room of the Leiden University Library, occupying another medieval chapel.

		The contents of these Islamic libraries were copied by Christian monks in Muslim/Chrisian border areas, particularly Spain and Sicily, and from there they eventually made their way into other parts of Christian Europe.
		The design of the medieval library arose very directly from the fact that these books were manuscripts created via the labor-intensive process of hand copying, and were valuable possessions, were therefore likely to be stolen, and were far too expensive for most people to own.
