Before using this handlist, the researcher should be aware of its scope and limitations. It covers only material held in the Manuscripts Department of the Huntington Library, and does not generally include material from Rare Books (with the exception of some pertinent manuscript material included in printed books), Photo Archives, or the Botanical Division. It is in its early stages of development, and makes no claim to be complete. It has been constructed largely from existing finding aids, with only occasional checking having been done to date with the original manuscripts to ensure accuracy. Since it is still being actively and continually supplemented with new information, it has not been systematically proofread for accuracy. With these caveats, we hope it will be of some help to researchers until a more thorough guide can be created. Please note that the “Find” function takes into account diacritics. Names often appear both with and without them, so two separate searches must be undertaken to find all instances of names including diacritical marks.
