THIS DIGITAL RESOURCE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION!

Forgers, Fakers, and Publisher-Pirates is an exhibition at University of Alberta's Bruce Peel Special Collections (September 2025 through March 2026) with an accompanying book (known as an exhibition catalogue). Most of the rare books featured in the exhibition and catalogue have been fully digitized by University of Alberta Library or by our colleagues in other libraries and can be viewed by everyone for free. The links are available below. If you find a dead link, please feel free to email us at bpsc@ualberta.ca so that we can help you get access to the book and correct this list.

Bruce Peel Special Collections is typical of special collections and rare book libraries in North American universities in the twenty-first century, housing no more or less examples of forgery, fakery, and piracy than others.
