Literary Print Culture: This collection includes materials from the Stationer’s Company Archive, including rare documents dating from 1554 to the 21st century. Explore primary resources on the workings of the early book trade, the printing and publishing community, and the history of copyright and bookbinding.
Black Abolitionist Papers: This primary source collection details the extensive work of African Americans to abolish slavery in the United States prior to the Civil War. Covering the period 1830-1865, the collection presents the international impact of African American activism against slavery in the writings and publications of the activists themselves, and includes articles, documents, correspondence, proceedings, manuscripts, and literary works.
