Note: Books that are valuable due to their actual or prospective rarity, specifically books distinguished by an early publication date, limited issue, historical interest, or a special characteristic of the edition or binding, for example having been signed by the artist or containing special illustrations. This designation typically includes books that are collected by a special collections department, archives, or museum, as opposed to books that are available to casual readers on the shelves of a public library. |

Additional Notes: |

Dutch ..... Boeken die waardevol zijn vanwege hun feitelijke of verwachte zeldzaamheid; in specifieke zin, boeken die zich onderscheiden door hun vroege publicatiedatum, beperkte oplage, historisch belang of een specifiek kenmerk van de editie of band, bijvoorbeeld omdat ze zijn gesigneerd door de schrijver of bijzondere illustraties bevatten. Deze aanduiding verwijst meestal naar boeken die worden verzameld door een afdeling voor speciale collecties, archieven of een museum, in tegenstelling tot boeken die in een openbare bibliotheek staan en beschikbaar zijn voor het algemene publiek. |
Portuguese ..... Livros que são valiosos devido à sua raridade real ou futura, especificamente livros que se distinguem por uma data de publicação anterior, edição limitada, interesse histórico ou uma característica especial da edição ou encadernação, por exemplo, tendo sido assinados pelo artista ou contendo ilustrações especiais. Essa designação normalmente inclui livros que são coletados por um departamento de coleções especiais, arquivos ou museu, ao contrário dos livros que estão disponíveis para leitores casuais nas prateleiras de uma biblioteca pública. |
