The Frontispiece from Georg Andreas Böckler’s Theatrum Machinarum Novum, which is part of the Hoover Collection
There are special collections in three of The Claremont Colleges libraries, Denison, Honnold/Mudd, and Seeley G. Mudd, which hold unique and rare collections that are available to the students, faculty, and staff of the various Claremont institutions, and to scholars, researchers, and members of the community.
Hours
Special Collections materials are available by appointment, or if the materials are located in Honnold/Mudd, they are available during Reading Room Hours. Some of our collections require either advance notice or a waiting period, and visitors coming from a distance should give a week’s notice of their arrival. Please note that our hours vary during semester breaks.
