The Alexandria Library, Special Collections has in its manuscript archive
some 200+ collections totalling almost 900 boxes.  For some years, we've
provided online access to the collection with a subject index. Examining
the finding aids (individual collection inventories) to the collection
required a visit to the library.

We've created a web page that links many of the finding aids to the subject
index.  This is a work in progress and as we clean up and convert more
finding aids to pdfs, we will update.  Copy/paste the following address
into your browser URL window if the link breaks to two lines.
