This collection consisting of about 360 Danish 16th century prints is the largest of its kind in Sweden.
The core of the collection was added to Uppsala University Library in the 17th century. 50 prints were donated in 1959 by Gustaf Bernström, a Swedish bibliophile.
There is a card catalogue of the collection in the Catalogue Room in Carolina Rediviva with references to Lauritz Nielsen, Dansk bibliografi 1482-1550 and Dansk bibliografi 1551-1600.
