The collection of incunabulum is composed by about 300 volumes printed mainly in Italy, although there is also a smaller representation from France and Germany. We have about 55 spanish works, coming from 9 cities among which stand out the 31 books printed in Valencia, almost all of them in the valencian language; it explains the fact that many of them are unique or very rare books because very small editions were made of these.

Of the first printing house established in Valencia, that of Lambert Palmart, it stands out the book Obres e trobes en lahors de la Verge Maria, 1474, unique in the world. Other incunables of which there exist only a copy are Homelia sobre lo psalm ‘De profundis’ by Fuster, printed also by Lambert Palmart, 1490; Vida de la Verge Maria by Pérez, printed in Valencia by Nicolau Spindeler in 1494, also printed for himself in 1499, Omelia sobre lo psalm ‘Miserere mei Deus’ by Vinyoles, as well as Ethica ad Nicomachum printed in 1479 in Barcelona.

Very rare copy and emblematic work, saved from the bonfire by the Quixote is Tirant lo Blanch written by Joanot Martorell, which had come out the press of Nicolau Spindeler in 1490 and of which only 3 copies in the world are known.

Apart from the manual catalog, there are another printed one, redacted by Abelardo Palanca and Pilar Gómez, published by the University fo Valencia in 1981.
