Reviews

"Destined to become a standard work of reference." – Des McTernan, Curator, French Language Imprints 1501-1850, The British Library, in: French Studies Library Group Annual Review 3 (2006-7)
"More than half of the 52,000 bibliographical items in FB survive in fewer than four copies, more than 5,000 items survive in only one copy: these are made of many rare examples of ephemeral regional print, the source of many unexpected and unique discoveries." – Cristina Dondi, University of Oxford, Secretary of the Consortium of European Research Libraries (CERL), in: Journal of Ecclesiastical History 60/4 (2009)
"Doubtlessly, this work must be the most complete listing of early French books [...] It’s amazing to me how the farther we move away from the beginning of printing, the more we continue to discover about it." – David Vancil, Indiana State University Library, in: Dictionary Society of North America Newsletter 32/2 (Fall 2008)
"riche et de bonne qualité [...] une base de travail sans équivalent et de grande valeur." – Rémi Mathis, Bibliothèque nationale de France, in: Bulletin des bibliothèques de France 54/1 (2009)
