Thanks to those who have donated materials

It's simple to say that the library is built upon the generosity of many people, but what that means is often difficult to specify. It might mean the work of volunteers who have shelved materials, moved books from shelf to shelf, processed and boxed ephemera, slid fragile dust jackets into acid-free Mylar sleeves, sorted maps, and much more.

But today we'd like to list the individuals who have donated materials to the library and made it an ever more fascinating, useful and unpredictable resource. We've tried hard to make this a complete and accurate list, but if we've screwed up and left you out, we heartily apologize. In the weeks to come, we'll also post a list of institutions who have donated materials.

Grateful thanks to all of you:
