Content
Catalogue composed by the first librarian of the Koninklijke Bibliotheek, Charles Sulpice Flament. In 1798 the Representatives of the people of the Batavian Republic had decided to form the old library of the stadholders into national library. William V owned at the end of the 18th century only part of the original collection of books and even from this collection books were robbed by the French occupying power. The catalogue with a total of 6,566 entries is preceded by regulations 'for the use of the national library' and an instruction 'for the custodian'. Under Louis Napoleon the Library received the predicate 'Koninklijk' (Royal).
