Guides to the Collections

Guides to most of Bryn Mawr’s manuscript and archival collections can be found in the TriCollege Libraries Archives and Manuscripts Database. 

Other guides, and some digitized material, can be found in the Tri-Co Images and Manuscripts Database. These include the guide to the M. Carey Thomas papers and the guide to, and digital versions of, the Carrie Chapman Catt photograph albums.

Many of the guides can also be found in the Finding Aids Database sponsored by the Philadelphia Area Consortium of Special Collections Libraries, along with finding aids from many other institutions in the region. 

There are also guides to major book collections, as well as guides to additional archives and manuscript collections not in the finding aids database.
