Closed Collections Schedule
As part of its ongoing commitment to preserving and improving access to its holdings, the Beinecke has begun an aggressive campaign to process its backlog of manuscript collections. Please be aware that some archival collections at the Beinecke will be closed during processing.
The Beinecke offers the following two lists as a service to its readers who are planning research trips: Closed Collections and Upcoming Collection Closures. These lists are subject to change and updated regularly. Note: the dates given reflect the 1st day of the month.
