Wallace Finley Dailey describes the changes and additions to the Theodore Roosevelt Collection at Harvard University since his last report in 1994. Dailey notes the repair and restoration of thousands of pamphlets, the addition of manuscripts from Roosevelt family members, and the addition of books and articles whose authors made use of the collection in writing their works. Dailey also describes the process of moving the collection’s guides online, and he highlights the various exhibits mounted by Harvard Library using material from the collection. He closes the report by noting that the collection received Theodore Roosevelt’s Pigskin Library, and that it served as the centerpiece of an exhibit.
A photograph of the Pigskin Library appears on the first page of the report, and a text box with a quote from Roosevelt about reading appears at its end.
