Rare Books & Manuscripts


Rare Books and Manuscripts

Rare Books and Manuscripts are small collections of materials unrelated to the Appalachian Collection, the University Archives, and the Stock Car Racing Collection. Each group of materials is defined by a coherent organizing theme, although several are related to British Studies. Collection descriptions, linked below, clarify distinctions of content as well as the richness and uniqueness of the materials.

Paul and Maryrose Carroll Beat Poetry Collection

The Children’s Literature Collection

The Bingham Dai Collection

British Studies Collections

General Collection of Rare Books

Special Collections seeks to add to and enhance its Rare Books and Manuscripts collections. If you have related materials and would like to explore donating them to the University, please contact the Curator of Rare Books and Manuscripts, Dr. Harry Keiner, at keinerhc@appstate.edu.
