  • Филателистические коллекции Британской библиотеки (англ. British Library Philatelic Collections) — национальное собрание филателистических коллекций Великобритании, содержащее более 8 миллионов экспонатов со всего мира. Собрание формировалось в фондах библиотеки Британского музея (позднее ставшей Британской библиотекой) в 1891 году, начиная с коллекции Томаса Таплинга. Помимо завещаний и дарений, библиотека постоянно получала на хранение филателистические материалы от «Агентства короны» и стала местом прописки для ведущей исследовательской коллекции по истории почты и филателии Британской империи и остального мира. В составе Коллекций помимо почтовых марок имеются другие, самые разнообразные филателистические артефакты — от газетных марок до печатной машины, на которой были изготовлены первые английские почтовые марки.
