Body
EDNOTE. The Nabokov family library was conficated and sent to the Leningrad
State Book Fund and at least some volumes ended up on other libraries and on
the market even abroad. The best source of information is L.F.Klimenko's
article "Biblioteka doma Nabokovyx". pp. 193-200 in _Nabokovskii Vestnik_
(St. P.; Dorn, 1998). Her article is devoted mostly to the privately printed
Katalogi of 1904 & 1911. The NYPL library has a copy of both. More work may
have been done since this article. If anyone knows please advise NABOKV-L.
