William L. Clements Library Finding Aids

Use this site to explore collection guides and inventories of manuscripts and graphics collections, which include letters, diaries, photographs, ephemera, and more.

Requesting Materials

Each finding aid contains a link to request materials from the collection. Collections are non-circulating and must be used in the Clements Library reading room. Some finding aids contain links to digitized versions of parts or all of a collection, but in most cases viewing a collection in its entirety will require visiting the library.
