What is an archive? What is a manuscript?
An archives is the official records, manuscript papers, correspondence, and other documents collected by an individual person, a family, an organization, or an institution that are preserved for their historical value. Search the library’s catalog Orbis, the Database of Archival Collections and Manuscripts, the Uncataloged Acquisitions database, and the library’s card catalog to find catalog records, finding aids, registers, calendars, and preliminary lists for Beinecke’s collections.
