| repository | Yale University Library |
| description | This finding aid encompasses single manuscripts and small groups of manuscripts acquired by the Beinecke Library from various sources and at various times, which the Library has chosen to describe here rather than as separate entries in Yale University Library's on-line Public Access Catalog (Orbis). These materials include literary manuscripts, individual or small groups of letters, and single documents. Materials are grouped under headings for author or other personal or corporate name to which they most closely relate. Items of unidentified authorship are grouped separately under "Unidentified" at the end of the finding aid. Group numbers were assigned as items were added to the collection; entries appear in alphabetical order by main entry, not in group number order. Within each group, folders (F-[#]) and volumes (V-[#]) are numbered in order of processing. Location: BEINECKE (Non-Circulating) Call Number: YCAL MSS MISC |
