Abstract
El artículo lleva a cabo un acercamiento a la actividad del mercader José Santiago Gómez, un librero establecido en la ciudad de Murcia a mediados del siglo XVIII. Dada su condición de editor, se abordan los textos impresos a su costa desde 1761 a 1776, las distintas reediciones sacadas al mercado local y nacional y sus características formales. Se han utilizado dos tipos de fuentes de información: archivísticas (protocolos notariales, legajos municipales y libros parroquiales) y bibliográficas (los impresos editados por el librero). Ambas fuentes permiten profundizar en el conocimiento de uno de los nombres que integraban la nómina de mercaderes de libros en la Murcia dieciochesca y sus modos peculiares de actuar dentro de la industria del libro.
