Juvenile Historic Collection

Books in the Juvenile Historic Collection have publication dates ranging from the early 1800s through the 1970s. In addition to general children's fiction, the collection also includes many volumes of early juvenile series such as Nancy Drew, the Bobbsey Twins, Elsie Dinsmore, Cherry Ames, and the Hardy Boys.

The collection currently includes four major donations of historic children's books:

• May G. Quigley Collection
• Balbach Family Gift
• Patricia Bravender Gift
• Susan M. Steele Gift
