Library

Dr Pusey's own books, bought after his death, originally formed the heart of Pusey House Library. Since then, by gift and purchase, the Library has grown into an important collection that is widely recognised as the leading specialist library not only in Oxford but in the United Kingdom.

The main strengths lie in:

• Patristics
• Church history (especially the Oxford Movement)
• Liturgy and doctrine

In addition to its primary source material and books on the Anglo-Catholic Movement, in recent times the Library has become a resource centre for the Church of England, holding General Synod papers, runs of church newspapers and directories and other relevant material and publications as well as the theses written for Lambeth degrees. The large majority of books are on open-access shelves. The Library also subscribes to a large number of periodicals and journals.
