This work explores the origins and developments of the National Library of France, tracing its history from the time of Charlemagne through various significant periods and key figures who contributed to its growth. The opening of the text discusses the early origins of the National Library, beginning with Charlemagne and his efforts to gather books and manuscripts, which laid the groundwork for future royal collections.
