Digitized materials from Lehigh University Special Collections include items from the 15th through the 20th century, among them handbills, scrapbooks, contracts, deeds, manuscripts of literary works, and correspondence from major American and European writers, statesmen, philosophers, and scientists.
Each item is accompanied by a detailed annotation. The collection can be browsed by topic or author and searched by keyword, date, and document type. The majority of documents date from the 18th century forward. Some course assignments, transcriptions and translations are also featured.
