Using the Catalog

The Philanthropic Archives is one of many specialized subject collections at the WRHS. Collections in the Archives/Library are cataloged using Library of Congress (LC) rules and subject headings.

Some LC authorized subject headings useful in accessing philanthropic collections include:

  • Charitable uses, trusts, and foundations
  • Nonprofit organizations
  • Charities
  • Trusts and trustees
  • Philanthropists
  • Endowments
  • Charitable bequests
