For those lucky enough to be in Melbourne for rare book week, (18 - 28 July, 2013) there are a host of free exhibitions, talks, and the ANZAAB rare book fair.

For a fix of rare books closer to home, why not browse through Fryer's rare book collection? Our collection consists of over 4 500 titles. It ranges from Decretales cum apparatu domini Bernardi et lucubrationibus Hieronymi Clarii, (a 1493 incunable of canon law by Pope Gregory IX published in Nuremburg; believed to be one of the oldest printed books held in Queensland libraries) to pulp fiction.

Previously published online highlights include:

• Savonarola's Sermons
• Mezzotints for Paradise Lost by John Martin
• Serialised publication and Bleak House .
