This finding aid encompasses single manuscripts and small groups of manuscripts acquired by the Beinecke Library from various sources and at various times, which the Library has chosen to describe here rather than as separate entries in Yale University Library's on-line Public Access Catalog (Orbis). These materials include literary and historical manuscripts, individual or small groups of letters, and single documents. Materials are grouped under headings for author or other personal or corporate name to which they most closely relate. Items of unidentified authorship are grouped under the heading "Unidentified" under the letter "U". Group numbers were assigned to headings in an initial alphabetical sequence and thereafter in order of processing; within each group, folders (F-[#]) and volumes (V-[#]) are numbered in order of processing.
