A printed copy of William Reading, 'Bibliothecae cleri Londinensis in Collegio Sionensi catalogus' (London, 1724). Interleaved and continued with additions in manuscript by successive Librarians of Sion College, ie. William Reading (Librarian 1708-44), William Brakenridge (Librarian 1745-62) and William Clements (Librarian 1762-99). The interleavings are foliated 1-260. The volume was kept up to date as the catalogue of Sion College Library from 1724 to 1785, when Robert Watts was commissioned to produce a new version (now Sion L40.2/E 97-99). At ff. 209-214 is a continuation of the catalogue of manuscripts, including an extensive list of the books and manuscripts given by Thomas Bray (1656-1730) on 20 Feb. 1729/30. This does not appear in the Sion College Book of Benefeactors (Sion L40.2/E64).
