Note 37 — Chapter I · [1] FROM THE FOUNDATION TO THE CAROLINE CHARTER.
Reading edition
The College Library, which forms the subject of another chapter in this book, was intended solely for graduates, and we hear that when the victors of Kinsale voted a large part of their prize-money for books, or when the College voted money for the same purpose, learned men like Ussher and Challoner were forthwith sent to England to purchase them.
