Custodial history
Lister bequeathed to the Asmolean Museum all his books and copperplates. Part of his correspondence and perhaps some of his personal papers came to the Museum by the gift of Dr George Fothergill in 1769. In 1694-1695 and 1695-1696 the Vice-Chancellor's accounts show money paid for the carriage of volumes presented to the Ashmolean by Lister.
Acquisition
The collection was transferred to the Library from the Ashmolean Museum in 1860.
