How the UL acquired a special collection
One and a half years ago Gerda Huisman, curator at the UL, received a call from a granddaughter of the founder of the Sips painting company about a collection of books on decoration. Huisman was very interested. ‘I jumped on my bike and rode to Paterswolde to take a look at the books. They were beautiful and I obviously wanted to bring them to the UL. They would be a fantastic addition to the library’s existing interior decoration collection.’
In the Magazine on the UG website, there is an interesting article about the acquisition of this special collection.
