The Library of Leonard and Virginia Woolf is rich in volumes annotated by LeonardWoolf (including a few by Virginia Woolf, primarily her Greek texts), numerous review copies, and gifts from their friends.
To the collection of books once owned by Leonard and Virginia Woolf, MASC has added works written by the Woolfs, books they published at the Hogarth Press, founded in 1917, and books by their close friends in the Bloomsbury Group.
