Gemology Online, is pleased to present this monumental contribution by Conny Forsberg in concert with Joseph Gill:

“Gill's Historical Index To Gems And Jewelry Online”
Including Journals, Articles And Books Relating to Jewelry
From 1652 through today


Joseph Gill has spent a lifetime collecting over 20,000 listings of gem and jewelry related topics spanning over 350 years. It contains all works in the English language arranged chronologically and by subject, with over 350 direct links to downloads enabling one to read or download any of the titles for their personal use. Although, this in itself would be a remarkable legacy, it is only one facet of the truly exceptional life of an extraordinary altruist.

Click here to learn more about Joseph Gill.

Conny Forsberg has formatted a NEW easily searchable platform providing the entire Library!

The Library is divided into 3 parts.
-Part 1: Chronologically
Sections: -16th, 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th and 21th centuries.

-Part 2: By Topic
Sections: Gems and Gem Minerals, Bibliographic Lists/Gems in Literature, Theoretical Gemology and Antique Gems & Jewelry (History and Mystery).
Still under construction!

-Part 3: Links to copyrighted materials.
Still under construction!

OR.. and it is a very big ask ...but maybe an indication of file size next to them?

Other than that is there a way of seeing the size as is but I just don't know it? :? That's totally probable :lol:

Total amount somewhere around 30-40 Gb, no .zip file... :)
A gang of 16Gb USB-sticks might do?
