A chess library tends to be a very personal thing, and usually mirrors the needs of its owner. Thus, a lover of chess history would buy a completely different set of books than a 1400 tournament player who is trying hard to improve.

My chess library has close to 4,000 books, and since I write about chess and need a large variety of chess subjects to be at my fingertips, the books I own tend to be on everything imaginable. Though one might deem my library to be huge, there are quite a few people in the U.S. (and even more elsewhere in the world) that have collections which dwarf mine.

PAL BENKO: MY LIFE, GAMES, AND COMPOSITIONS by Benko and Silman. Aside from 138 deeply annotated games, a huge amount of incredible problems and compositions, interviews, dozens of amazing photographs, and an opening survey by Watson, this book tells the story of a life in and out of chess where relationships, the brutality of war, torture, poverty, politics, sex, and the hardships of making a living on the 64 squares are all given equal time.

Finally: Every player will have a favorite book that he will want to add to this list. I only mentioned a small few, so if you don't like these titles or want to build a really big library, I'm sure fellow chess.com members will feed you their favorites.

Chess libraries are library collections of books and periodicals on the game of chess. In 1913, preeminent chess historian H. J. R. Murray estimated the total number of books, magazines, and newspaper columns pertaining to chess to be about 5,000 at that time.[1][2] B. H. Wood estimated that number, as of 1949, to be about 20,000.[2] David Hooper and Kenneth Whyld write that, "Since then there has been a steady increase year by year of the number of new chess publications. No one knows how many have been printed..."[2]

The John G. White Chess and Checkers Collection at Cleveland Public Library has the largest chess and draughts library in the world, with over 32,000 chess books and over 6,000 bound volumes of chess periodicals."[3] It was started with the donation of a quarter of a million dollars and 11,000 books from John G. White's private library upon his death.[4]

The Chess & Draughts collection at the Bibliotheca Van der Linde-Niemeijeriana (part of the Koninklijke Bibliotheek, the National Library of the Netherlands). The second largest public chess collection in the world is built on the donations of the private chess libraries of Antonius van der Linde, Meindert Niemeijer and G.L. Gortmans. It contains about 30,000 books.[5]

The M.V. Anderson Chess Collection held at State Library Victoria (Melbourne, Australia) is the largest public chess collection in the Southern hemisphere.[6] This contains in excess of 12,000 books and many journal and newsletter titles. Additional titles are added each year. It is based around M.V. Anderson's personal collection of 6700 volumes donated between 1959 and 1966. [7]

Grandmaster Lothar Schmid of Bamberg, Germany reportedly owned the world's largest private collection of chess books and memorabilia.[8][9] In 1992, Hooper and Whyld stated that Schmid's chess library "is the largest and finest in private hands, with more than 15,000 items".[10] In 2008, Susan Polgar stated that Schmid "has over 20,000 chess books".[3] Dirk Jan ten Geuzendam states that Schmid "boasts to have amassed 50,000 chess books.[11]

David DeLucia's chess library contains 7,000 to 8,000 chess books, a similar number of autographs (letters, score sheets, manuscripts), and about 1,000 items of "ephemera".[12] DeLucia's library contains such items as "a 15th-century Lucena manuscript, score-sheets ranging from Fischer's Game of the Century against Donald Byrne to all the games of the 1927 New York tournament, eight letters by Morphy, over a hundred Lasker manuscripts, Capablanca's gold pocket watch, [and] the contract of the 1886 Steinitz-Zukertort world championship match".[13] Ten Geutzendam opines that DeLucia's collection "is arguably the finest chess collection in the world".[13]

The Muse Suisse du Jeu in Switzerland has a room devoted to chess, according to number 152 of EG, which reports their purchase of Ken Whyld's library in 2004. As of January 2010, the British Chess Variants Society was planning to transfer five boxes of archival material related to David Pritchard's research for the Encyclopedia of Chess Variants to that collection.[15]

I tried it on command prompt, the Python command prompt, and Python itself, I tried running command prompt and the Python command prompt by running with administrator rights but it still didn't work, I tried looking at videos and other websites to try and find out how to do it, and they all say pip install chess and I've tried most of the ways I could think of. When I try it on command prompt it says:

Through his efforts the Library acquired rare books and unique editions that could not be purchased with public funds. He donated significant collections from his personal library. A prime mover in planning and designing the Main Library Building, John G. White underwrote the construction of the Fine Arts and Special Collections reading room and the Exhibit Corridor. A trust fund he established continues to purchase special volumes.

I know an IM friend of mine has thousands of books, and that Karpov is said to have a massive library (although I cannot find confirmation of this, or how many), but who has the largest library of chess books?

Some good stuff about chess libraries but let's face it, the great libraries are hundreds of kilometres/miles away from where many of us live. I collect and have seen the M.V. Anderson Chess Library in Melbourne Australia 4 times over 30 years and examined the websites of Cleveland and The Hague. Trouble is many books are kept in storage offsite and one needs days notice to get to them. No random browsing works now, though still pleasant. Libraries are good to use but the pressure of time is always there. The SLNSW has a 1 hour time limit on computer research. Bit sad but life. It is good to write articles based on one's library and great when it can be uploaded onto Edward Winter's 'Chess Notes' or Karel Mokry's site. One feels that progress is being made. e24fc04721
