Library news
Conservator Sue Donovan was on the team who opened the 134-year-old commemorative box that had been buried beneath the Lee statue. Historian Ervin L. Jordan Jr. analyzed the contents inside for clues about the lives of Black Richmonders in the 1890s. Both had much to say about what they found.
This permanent exhibit offers highlights of the Albert H. Small Declaration of Independence Collection, the most comprehensive collection of letters, documents, and early printings of the Declaration of Independence. The exhibition sheds light on not only the writing and signing of the Declaration, but also on its first printing, distribution across the colonies, and future impact on American history.
