Justin Winsor (1831-1897) was an American librarian and historian. He was superintendent of the Boston Public Library from 1868 to 1877, and librarian of Harvard University from 1877 until his death. The collection contains letters to Justin Winsor, as Superintendent of the Boston Public Library, from other librarians and Albany publisher Joel Munsell, relative to the purchase and exchange of listed books and periodicals, 1869-1874, with two letters to his predecessor Charles Coffin Jewett on the same subject, 1866-1867. Winsor's letters to Gordon L. Ford, Worthington C. Ford, and Paul L. Ford, 1887-1892, concern historical and bibliographical matters, as does a copy of Charles Deane's letter to Justin Winsor of 1877 March 10, with Winsor's related note to George Henry Moore (1823-1892) copied below it. A few invoices and receipts for publications, and Winsor's completed questionnaire for Appleton's Cyclopaedia of American Biography, 1888, are also present. less
