RESTRICTED COLLECTIONS AT THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS MANUSCRIPT COLLECTION

The Manuscript Collection at the Library of Congress houses many rare, often
unique collections of documents. For various reasons - including privacy,
copyright, and classification - around 200 of these collections (or portions
thereof) are restricted. In some cases, this means that the researcher must
get specific permission or sign a legal form before viewing; others
collections can be viewed but not photocopied or even quoted; in others
cases, no one is allowed to view a collection under any circumstances.

The list below was sent by Patrick M. Kerwin of the Library of Congress to
researcher Michael Ravnitzky on 23 March 2004.
