How Books, Reading and Subscription Libraries Defined Colonial Clubland in the British Empire argues that within an entangled web of imperial, colonial and book trade networks books, reading and subscription libraries contributed to a core and peripheral criteria of clubbability used by the "select people"clubbable settler eliteto vet the "proper sort"clubbable indigenous eliteas they culturally, economically and socially navigated their way towards membership in colonial clubland. As a microcosm for British-controlled areas of the Caribbean, Asia and Africa, this book assesses the history, membership, growth and collection development of three colonial subscription librariesthe Penang Library in Malaysia, the General Library of the Institute of Jamaica and the Lagos Library in Nigeriaduring the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
