FOOTNOTES [1] The classical Latin titles for “Librarian” found in inscriptions are:—_Procurator bibliothecarum_ (perhaps a wider term than _Librarian_), _Magister a bibliotheca_, _Bibliothecarius_ (used by Marcus Aurelius). _Librarius_ was a minor library official: _Librarius a manu_, a secretary in the library. [2] His arms were:—Quarterly, 1st and 4th argent five martlets in saltire, with a crescent gules for difference, on a chief azure three ducal crowns or (for _Bodley_), 2nd and 3rd argent, two bars wavy between three hone-stones sable two and one (for _Hone_). Motto, _Quarta perennis_ (a reference to the three crowns, which were taken from the University Arms, presumably in 1604, when Bodley was knighted). [3] _Bibliotheca Bodleiana_ is found in 1605: _Bodleiana_ in 1654; _Bodley’s Library_ in 1666; _Bodleian Library_ in 1695; _Bodley_ in 1706; _Bodleian_ in 1749. The term “Bodley” is now some times used for the old part of the Library, as compared with the “Camera.” [4] New College: matr., 1592; Fellow; D.D., 1614; died, 1629; Librarian, 1602-1620. [5] The Letters are well worth republishing, with notes, for Hearne’s edition in 1703 (_Reliquiæ Bodleianæ_) exhibit them in a hopelessly haphazard order, devoid of all chronological sequence. [6] Bodley, however, reserved a life interest in this endowment, and the only independent income of the Librarian and Sub-Librarian as such was 8d. payable to the former and 4d. to the latter from every newly admitted reader—a provision made in the Statutes of 1610. [7] This grant was hastily made, but actually passed under the Privy Seal, though its execution was for intelligible reasons stopped. [8] John Rouse or Russe, matr. from Balliol 1596, Fellow of Oriel, 1600-52, M.A., 1604: Librarian, 1620-52. [9] Exactly the same incident occurred with the Protector, Cromwell, when a MS. was ordered by him. Barlow induced him also to forgo his wish. This was in April, 1654, the year in which Cromwell presented twenty-four MSS. [10] Thomas Barlow, matr. from Queen’s, 1625; Fellow, 1633-57; Provost, 1657-75; D.D., 1660; Bp. of Lincoln, 1675-91; Librarian, 1652-60.
