Harry Price Library of Magical Literature

Harry Price Library Digitised Content and Web Links

During 2007, a proportion of the works in the Harry Price Library was digitised by the publishers Adam Matthew Digital, and incorporated into their database: Victorian Popular Culture . The texts chosen were published from the eighteenth to the twentieth centuries, and the selection was made by Professor Peter Otto, Chair of Literary Studies, University of Melbourne.

Steve Connor, Professor of Modern Literature and Theory at Birkbeck College University of London , gave a talk to the Friends of Senate House Library about the researcher's viewpoint of the Harry Price Library of Magical Literature which he has made available on his Website as: Sleights of Voice: Ventriloquism, Magic and The Harry Price Collection
