Arthur Cowley (librarian)
Sir Arthur Ernest Cowley, FBA (13 December 1861 – 12 October 1931) was a British librarian who was Bodley's Librarian (head of the Bodleian Library at the University of Oxford) from 1919 until a couple of months before his death. He was also a leading Semitic scholar.
==Early life and career==
Cowley was the fourth son (and one of seventeen children) of a customs house agent and his wife from Sydenham in South London.〔 He studied at St Paul's School and Trinity College, Oxford, where ill-health and an interest in oriental languages impaired his study of the classics, and he obtained only a fourth-class degree. He then studied in Switzerland to improve his French and German, before teaching modern languages at Sherborne School then Magdalen College School (1885 to 1889 and 1890 to 1895 respectively).〔
Cowley worked with Alfred Neubauer, sub-librarian at the Bodleian Library, from 1890 onwards on the Samaritan liturgy; the results were published in two volumes in 1909. He was appointed assistant sub-librarian in 1896. Together, Cowley and Neubauer published ''The Original Hebrew of a Portion of Ecclesiasticus'' (1897) and ''Facsimiles of the Fragments Hitherto Recovered of the Book of Ecclesiasticus in Hebrew'' (1901). When Neubauer left the Bodleian in 1899, Cowley became sub-librarian and also taught rabbinical Hebrew literature as well as working on a catalogue of the library's Sanskrit collections and (with Neubauer) the second volume of the library's catalogue of Hebrew manuscripts. He was appointed as a Fellow of Magdalen College, Oxford, in May 1902, and was awarded a D.Litt. by the university in 1908. He moved to the University of Cambridge in 1912 as Sandars Reader in Bibliography.〔
