FULVIO ORSINI COLLECTION. 
This collection has apparently been absorbed into that of the Biblioteca 
Vaticana. A list entitled I Libri di Fnlvio Orsino nella Biblioteca Vatic ana, 
published in 1886 , reveals no American material. 
PALATINE LIBRARY. 
The books in Latin characters of this library are indexed in indice 13 of 
the Vatican Library , 3 and the whole library in Ottobonian 1872. It is almost 
wholly ecclesiastical in character and for the most part antedates the dis¬ 
covery of America. No volumes were examined, and the inventories showed 
only one of possible importance to the subject: 1361, p. 486 , “ De ritu e mori- 
bus Indorum ”, which probably refers to the East Indies. Ottobonian 2725, 
folio 186 , gives an account of the acquisition of this collection. 
LIBRARY OF THE QUEEN OF SWEDEN. 
Much of the library collected by Queen Christina of Sweden during her 
long residence in the Corsini Palace has disappeared, but the larger part of 
3 It is also inventoried. Both seem reliable.
