As a research centre for the theological faculty, the library, of
course, contains an extensive collection of modern and new works on
theology and related disciplines, and evolves with the electronic
innovations introduced into modern libraries. In addition, however,
the library has a very valuable segment consisting of a collection
of ca. 160,000 older printings from the 15th, 16th, 17th and 18th
centuries. In 1994, to mark the occasion of the library's twentieth
anniversary, Frans Gistelinck and Maurits Sabbe edited a catalogue
of the post-incunabula present in this collection under the title
"Early Sixteenth Century Printed Books 1501-1540 in the Library of
the Leuven Faculty of Theology" (Documenta Libraria 15, published
by the Theology Library and Peeters). The catalogue included 953
titles, mainly from the Jesuit collection and the library of the
Archdiocese of mechelen, and further, among others, from the
Franciscan Friars Minor in Vaalbeek (Leuven). This beautifully
illustrated catalogue included various studies on the origin and
content of the collection. Today, ten years later, this collection
of post-incunabula has again grown from the addition of copies from
libraries acquired later and from purchases. The library's
thirtieth anniversary seemed to us to be a suitable occasion to
publish a Supplement to the catalogue.
