Special Collections is responsible for many of Carnegie Mellon University's
rare and unique materials. The rare book collection, housed in the Fine and
Rare Book Room (on the fourth floor of Hunt Library) and in the Posner
Center, is strongest in the history of printing and graphic design, 19th
century English and American literature, and landmark books in the history
of science. Special Collections also includes manuscript collections of
local authors and professors, collections associated with special topics,
and collections that feature a variety of media such as posters and examples
of fine printing.
The staff is available to assist researchers working with rare books and archives, makes materials available for class lectures, and creates library exhibits.
Hours: Monday through Friday by appointment, 412-268-6622 or 412-268-7272.
