THE BLUMBERG EFFECT ON LIBRARIES AND ARCHIVES
One of the biggest realizations in the wake of the Blumberg thefts was how little security or guidance for security existed for rare materials, especially in academic collections. Blumberg had been able to sneak into dozens of special collections and archives to build his bounty, and he did so through research of the institutions alongside minimal formal security. This was a time when information was harder to track, as digital collections and record management wasn’t yet widespread.

Though the libraries, especially those along the west coast, had a robust communication system which helped slot the pieces of this theft together, they never anticipated getting their materials back. They did, though it took time as the FBI sorted through the millions of dollars of items in Blumberg’s possession.

Some libraries didn’t know they’d had material stolen until it was returned by the FBI. A survey sent to 170 institutions that had had items returned noted that only 14 knew when Blumberg had visited and taken items from them. That same survey asked if institutions had regular inventories of their materials prior to Blumberg, and only 42 of the 143 that responded did.

It wasn’t only large institutions. Blumberg hit small libraries as well, including one that served a population of under 350. Size of institution didn’t matter to Blumberg. If the items were valuable, he wanted to them, even if only to be their caretaker.

Security became a major topic of conversation within the rare materials community thereafter, and more standards were implemented where they hadn’t been before. As technology made communication among institutions even easier, as well as made security and digitization more accessible, acceptable, and expected, professional organizations have worked to ensure that the safety of priceless goods in such repositories stay available for research, study, and secure use for generations to come. More cameras, more security cards, and better inventory practices don’t limit scholars or library users from utilizing the materials — that’s what institutions want to happen — but they are there to cut down on the possibility of those like Blumberg making them altogether inaccessible.

It’s impossible to assert that we will never see a book theft like this again, but thanks to the Blumberg case, special collections have engaged in stronger measures to catch suspicious behaviors more quickly.
