Digital library history: the virtual bookcases of James Joyce and Samuel Beckett

This article investigates to what extent it is possible, not only to digitize a writers extant library, but also to reconstruct her or his virtual library. The central question is whether digitizing a writers library is not in fact a form of digitizing a library history, and whether this implies the possibility of interdisciplinary collaboration between library history and genetic criticism.
