There are interesting memoranda and letters from NYPL curators about collections. A notable series of letters by Spencer Collection Curator Karl Kup describes his adventures on buying trips for rare books, prints, and manuscripts in various cities. The T.S. Elliot file concerns the republishing of The Waste Land and includes letters from Mrs. Elliot. Other files document relations and problems with donors, collectors, and readers.
