2,178 Occult Books Now Digitized & Put Online, Thanks to the #RitmanLibrary and #DaVinciCode Author #DanBrown

August 14th, 2025

"In 2018 we brought you some exciting news. Thanks to a generous donation from Da Vinci Code author Dan Brown, Amsterdam’s Ritman Library—a sizable collection of pre-1900 books on alchemy, astrology, magic, and other occult subjects—has been digitizing thousands of its rare texts under a digital education project cheekily called '#HermeticallyOpen.' We are now pleased to report that the first 2,178 books from the Ritman project have come available in their online reading room."
