Dear Meredith,
Thank you for the information on the Blake research opportunities. Perhaps
the library will consider paperbacks. I myself am the fortunate owner of
the hardcover books, but my students really need proper illuminated
versions to work with.
The Blake websites might be an idea, but I think that a library-loan to
Copenhagen, Denmark would be more expensive than logistically feasible.
