The Rosenbach - rare books and literary manuscripts

The Rosenbach Museum & Library houses a noted collection of rare books and manuscripts associated with major literary and historical figures, founded on the collections of brothers Dr. A.S.W. Rosenbach and Philip Rosenbach. Its holdings include manuscripts, letters, and early editions by authors such as James Joyce and others, and the institution interprets these primary-source materials for scholarship and public exhibition. The Rosenbach operates as a museum and research library in a historic Philadelphia house.
