Harvard Memorabilia

A quantity of printed matter relating to the University, which has been accumulating for many years in the garret of University Hall, is now in the Department of Records in the Library. While few or none of the papers are of dates earlier than 1820, many of them are already very scarce and should be valuable to collectors of Harvardiana. Routine publications of all sorts, programmes of class day and other exercises, circulars, amusements and the like, make up the bulk of the collection; and of many papers there are from ten to fifty copies.

The librarian, or the deputy keeper of the University records, would be glad to have secretaries of Harvard clubs and other graduates who are collecting Harvardiana make use of this material. It is suggested that such persons may find Commencement a convenient time to call at the Library and see the papers for themselves.
