Wellcome's first major entry into the market took place at the auction of <a href="/wiki/William_Morris" title="William Morris">William Morris</a>'s library in 1898, where he was the biggest single purchaser, taking away about a third of the lots.

A programme of sorting and rationalising was therefore begun, which lasted throughout the 1940s and beyond. </p><p>The library's story during the later decades of the 20th century has been one of continuing growth and development.
