Antonio Cavagna Sangiuliani (1843-1913) was a public official, book collector, and recognized authority on the history of the Lombardy and Piedmont regions in northern Italy. His library contained tens of thousands of books on history, genealogy, biography, and law, including city statutes and organizational bylaws. The manuscripts in the collection especially reflect the study of local history and include charters, chronicles, investitures, leases, and other legal instruments relating to Italian cities, organizations, and families.

All aspects of Italian history, from the Middle Ages to the first years of the twentieth century, are prominently represented in the Cavagna Sangiuliani Collection. Other topics which are heavily represented include art and architecture, church history and hagiography, engineering and fortification, military and religious orders, monasticism and religious life, Roman history and antiquities, and Italian academies and universities.

Primarily in Italian, the collection also contains works in Latin, French, and German. Among the books in the collection are incunables, rare and early printed books, pamphlets, and ephemera. Many of the historical documents are unique and found in no other library worldwide. In addition, the Cavagna Sangiuliani Collection also contains several thousand maps, both printed and manuscript.

The print materials from the Cavagna Sangiuliani Collection are available in the University Library's online catalog and can be accessed via the heading "Cavagna Sangiuliani Collection".

Born in Alessandria, Italy on August 15, 1843, Antonio Cavagna was adopted by his cousin Antonio Sangiuliani, Count of Balbiano, in 1853, and he added the surname to his own. Sangiuliani fought for Italian unification in the 1866 campaign and was discharged as a Second Lieutenant. He obtained a degree in law from the University of Rome in 1871 and managed his estates in the region of Pavia, serving in various public offices including municipal councilor and mayor.

A public official, book collector, and an expert on the history of both the Lombardy and Piedmont regions in northern Italy, Sangiuliani researched local history and published roughly two hundred works. His first publication in 1865 highlighted the medieval Sant'Alberto di Brutio abbey, and he maintained a large interest in the Italian Middle Ages.

His library contained tens of thousands of books on subjects ranging from local genealogy to law to Italian history, and his collection also included incunables. He established the Pavese Historical Bulletin in 1893 and the Pavese Society of Homeland History in 1901. Sangiuliani married twice and had four children. He died in Milan on April 5, 1913.
