論英國書刊繳存制與牛津大學巴德里圖書館的館藏發展關係

本文旨在探討英國繳存制度對牛津大學巴德里圖書館館藏發展的影響情形。文中檢視自1610年該館首獲繳存本，至今將近四百年間，繳存制的濫觴，相關法令修立更替，引發的爭端，巴德里圖書館繳存本增長情形，存儲繳存本及提供校外人士使用情形。十九世紀後期開始，繳存本開始占入藏資料60-70﹪的情形，大致延續至今。穩定而大量的繳存本，是現今巴德里圖書館豐富館藏的主要來源，也使得英國的文化資產得以完整的保存傳承。

The article intends to probe into the relationship between Copyright deposits and the collection development in the Bodleian Library. Reviewing from the beginnings of the deposit system in England since 1610 to its recent practices, the author analyzes the heated protests and arguments while related laws were under revision, the privileged flow and increase of yearly accessions of deposits, the storage and retention of collections, and services to those scholars without direct connections with the Univertsity. Starting from the later half of the 19th century the copyright intake accounts for something between 60-70 % of the annual accessions. It demonstrates that the steady and large flow of deposit intake forms the major portion of the strong Bodleian collection, preserving of the precious national literature of the Great Britain.
