Baggage

Please note that the Library is not equipped to hold bulky luggage or cases. You will be requested to leave them at the railway of Santa Maria Novella.

Loans

The Library sends its manuscripts, rare books and printed material out on loan for exhibitions according to current regulations. Items cannot be borrowed by individuals. Interlibrary loans of non rare books and reproductions are made upon previous payment of an insurance covering postal expenses. Loans are suspended during the first two weeks of September due to annual revisions. All documents out on loan must be returned to the Library during this period. Loans may not exceed 15 days.

Reproductions

In order to preserve and safeguard the material in its care the Library has had all the manuscript holdings and features of the monumental section microfilmed or photographed. Details of illuminations have also been reproduced on colour slides. The microfilm, photograph and slide collection is accessible to the public. Upon payment of a fee copies from the original microfilms, photographs and slides can be obtained for study or publication/ commercial purposes. However, in the latter case, an extra fee is required to cover the Library’s copyrights. Charges are determined by current rules.
