The Friends Collection includes the college's books and periodicals on Quakerism, manuscripts related to Friends, and Earlham College historical materials. It has one of the world's largest collections of books, pamphlets, and published materials relating to the Society of Friends. These include numerous works on slavery and the opposition of Friends to it.
Earlham's collection also includes a number of Indiana and Ohio county and other local historical works. We have a number of published and unpublished records for local cemeteries. We will add to this guide as we come across new things.
