The Americana Collection offers more than 4,000 diverse American imprints and manuscripts. The focus of the collection is on Colonial America, the Revolutionary War Era, and the early Republic, but the breadth of the collection spans five centuries.
The Americana Collection is open for research purposes by appointment to anyone who agrees to comply with both building security requirements and proper handling techniques for collections.
Potential researchers should work with an archivist to determine which specific archival materials may be of interest. Please be as detailed and specific as possible in describing your research question. Contact the staff by email at [email protected].
