stationern.¹

Brit.

/ˈsteɪʃn̩ə/,

/ˈsteɪʃənə/, U.S.

/ˈsteɪʃənər/

Forms: Middle English staciner, Middle English stacionere, Middle English stacyener, Middle English stacyner, Middle English stacyonere, Middle English–1500s stacioner, Middle English–1500s stacyoner, Middle English– stationer, 1500s stacioner, 1500s–1600s stationar, 1600s stabiner (Scottish, transmission error).

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin statiōnārius.

Etymology: < classical Latin statiōnārius (see stationary adj.), in its post-classical Latin use denoting a bookseller. Compare Anglo-Norman statiner (1394 in an apparently isolated attestation). Compare Spanish estacionario (13th cent., now historical). Compare stationar n.Examples of the vernacular word from the 14th and early 15th centuries are typically in Latin documents, and could alternatively show the Anglo-Norman word (compare e.g. quot. 1311 at sense 1a). However, the word is apparently very rare in contextual use in Anglo-Norman, and hence these examples have been taken here as probably showing the English word. Compare also the following earlier occurrence as a surname: Alanus le Staciner (1293–4). The probable direct adoption of the Latin word is accounted for by its early use in the context of the universities, where the stationarius was licensed and controlled by the academic authorities, whom he was sworn to obey.

a. A person who sells books; a bookseller; (in the Middle Ages) esp. one licensed by a university. Occasionally also: a printer, a bookbinder. Now historical.flying, running stationer: see the first element.There is some overlap between the subsenses at sense 1, depending on the historical context (for example, a copyist might produce and sell manuscript copies, and a bookseller might sell writing materials).

Phrases

the Company of Stationers (more fully the Worshipful Company of Stationers): one of the Livery Companies of the City of London, originally comprising booksellers, printers, bookbinders, and dealers in writing materials, and now also encompassing those working in newspaper production, broadcasting, and digital media.An earlier guild of stationers is said to have been established in London in 1403 (cf. quot. 1529 at sense 1a). The guild received a Royal Charter in 1557, granting it a monopoly in printing, and the responsibility to check and register all books produced in England. It became a Livery Company in 1560. In 1937, the Company of Stationers was amalgamated with the Company of Newspaper Makers and is now formally known as the Worshipful Company of Stationers and Newspaper Makers.

Registration of new works at Stationers' Hall ceased in 2000.Since 1670 the Company has been located in Ave Maria Street in the City of London.
