The Rare Books and Special Collections Group unites librarians responsible for collections of rare books, manuscripts and special materials, with other interested individuals. The group promotes the study and exploitation of rare books, encourages awareness of preservation, conservation and digitisation issues, and fosters training opportunities related to the maintenance, display and use of collections.

The business of the AGM is:

• to receive the minutes of the previous AGM
• to receive the annual report of the past year
• to receive the annual accounts of the past year
• to receive the committee membership list for the year ahead
• to discuss any other motions received

Attendance at the AGM is free to all members of the Rare Books and Special Collections Group.
