Whilst doing some online browsing today, I came across a link to this Online Books Page which features PDF versions of lots of historic books on lace and lacemaking – mostly from the On-Line Digital Archive of Documents on Weaving and Related Topics at the University of Arizona, but also from other places.  The webpage has been put together by the University of Pennsylvania and is a fantastic resource anyone who wants to look at some of the old books, and read more about the history of lace and lacemaking.  Those who own a Kindle or other e-book reader will be able to download the files on to their device.

I will post the link on our Links page so it can be easily located in future.
