About the Lloyd W. Smith Archival Collection


The Lloyd W. Smith Collection, which includes approximately 15,000 printed works and nearly 300,000 manuscripts, consists of documents spanning from the fifteenth- through early twentieth-centuries. The original collector of these documents valued the continuity of history and had the foresight into the significance of preserving cultural heritage; the archive houses everything from George Washington to Booker T. Washington, Alessandro Scarlatti to Richard Wagner, Byron to Longfellow, George III to George Elliot, Darwin to Emerson, Catherine de Medici to Susan B. Anthony. Lloyd Smith’s Collection is an amalgam of founding fathers, U.S. and world leaders, authors and poets, scholars and thinkers, social activists, celebrities and laymen. To say the least, The Lloyd W. Smith Archival Collection is not your typical National Park Service collection.
