Tucked away in Stanmore I never expected there to be a library for artist books. Bibliotheca Librorum apud Artificem is in a private house in Sydney, collecting and seeking after artist books.
You can browse the collection online by looking through artists, book titles or publisher names. You can search the system by type of medium or edition.
You can even submit an application to have work  considered for the library.
It looks like it could be well worth checking out but access to the collection is strictly by appointment only. Students are welcomed!
