The book "Rome Reborn: The Vatican Library and Renaissance
Culture" serves as catalogue for the exhibit of the same name at the
Library of Congress, which will present for the first time outside of
Rome a selection of objects from the Vatican Library's remarkable
collections. This beautiful book, which contains over 200 color
illustrations, introduces the reader to the Vatican Library and
examines in particular its development during the Renaissance.
Distinguished scholars discuss the Library's holdings and the
historical circumstances of its growth, presenting a fascinating cast
of characters--popes, artists, collectors, scholars, and
scientists--who influenced how the Library evolved.

The Soviet Archives Exhibit has never had a catalog, so you cannot
order one. There is however a free Postscript
handbook which
is a printed version of this exhibit. It comes without the inlined images, but
with inlined translations. The handbook has a filesize of 662 Kbytes, and doesn't
seem to work well with ghostview so you may want to exercise binairy transfer.
The Library of Congress is described in a small
leaflet.
Feel free to take one because the supply is unlimited.
