This sale of classics on the history of computing, data-networking, and telecommunications documents the scientific and technological origins of the Internet. In 2002 Diana H. Hook and I published a descriptive, annotated bibliography on this collection entitled Origins of Cyberspace: A Library on the History of Computing, Networking, and Telecommunications. Here is the link to Christie's website for auction of the Origins of Cyberspace Library on February 23rd: <a href="http://www.christies.com/promos/feb05/1484/overview.asp">http://www.christies.com/promos/feb05/1484/overview.asp</a>. The auction catalogue is now online at Christies website.
