at the Dixon Public Library The Lincoln Collection at the Dixon Public Library We are very proud of our Lincoln Collection at DPL. There has been a distinct collection of books and pamphlets about Lincoln here for many years, some of it given by Edward Vaile. This was substantially added to in 1987 when the library received a large gift of materials from Howard Engelbrecht of Oregon, IL. For nearly 30 years much of the collection was housed in The Lincoln Room, which had been the Director’s office until 1969, although there were other Lincoln titles throughout the non-fiction, biography, and even fiction sections of the library. In 2017 the main book collection was gathered together on new shelves next to our beautiful arch window on the main floor, re-cataloged and relabeled, and made readily accessible to anyone who is interested. Our Lincoln Collection can be found online using this link: https://tinyurl.com/dplincolncollection. Click on the link and you will be taken to a listing of all of our Lincoln items in our online catalog. There is an option to sort this list in several ways, such as by author, call number, and title. There are two parts of the collection which can’t be checked out: our Lincoln pamphlets held in magazine boxes and index card box at the adult circulation desk, but along with the items held in our vault they may be consulted on request in the library. On the following pages is a list of over 810 items and 680 different titles that the library holds on Lincoln. We hope that you find this list useful. We will keep it up to date, as we add new titles. If you have any questions or suggestions for specific items we might add to this collection, please address those to the Director of the Dixon Public Library, Antony Deter. One other thing that might be of interest to the Lincoln enthusiast is the book “Lincoln in Dixon”, which is published by the Dixon Public Library. It was written by former director Nancy Gilfillan with local historian Duane Paulsen, and was reissued in 2017. Copies can be checked out or purchased at the library for $5.00. Look for more information on the back page of this brochure.
