Books is the catalogue's home for printed material about building. Most titles sit in its sub-themes, while the main theme itself lists just two items from the 1980s.

About Books

How the theme is organised

The bulk of the collection is split into six sub-themes: Technic, Ideas Books, Non-fiction Books, Story Books, Activity Books and Activity Books with LEGO Parts. The last of these covers books that come with bricks to build alongside the pages. Filed directly under Books are The World of LEGO Exhibition (WORLDSHOW-1) from 1981 and Imagination and System (Informational Leaflet) (LEAFLET-1) from 1986. Both are listed with 0 pieces, as they are printed items rather than building sets. To browse actual titles by year, open one of the sub-themes, where idea books, story books and activity books are listed separately.
