Washington Rare Book Group

About This Association

From small secondhand book shops to the Library of Congress, the capital region enjoys vast bibliographic resources. We invite you to join the Washington Rare Book Group (WRBG) to learn more about the institutions and people who are involved in rare books in the metropolitan area. We cover some fascinating subjects in the world of books and most heartily welcome newcomers,This informal and diverse group dates from the early 1970’s, when a small number of enthusiasts from various disciplines (including collectors, book dealers, and private and governmental librarians) was drawn together to share collecting interests and activities. The groups’ membership now numbers approximately 100 and has grown to include publishers, printers, conservators, book artists, historians, and others.
