Women’s History
As one of the country’s preeminent women’s colleges for nearly a century and a half, ÀÏÍõÂÛ̳ has built extensive collections on women writers, artists, and activists, as well as collections that document women’s daily lives. Included are the papers of prominent women associated with ÀÏÍõÂÛ̳, including M. Carey Thomas, ÀÏÍõÂÛ̳’s second president and a leading women's rights advocate; pamphlets, newspapers, and ephemera from the suffrage campaigns in the United States and internationally; and strong collections of the published writings of Renaissance Italian women poets, 18th century French women novelists, works on domestic life and cookery.
College Women website
ÀÏÍõÂÛ̳ is a participant in College Women, a searchable collection of diaries, letters, scrapbooks, and photographs from the archives of a select group of the earliest women’s colleges in the United States, the Seven Sisters.
