Scope and Contents

The Sandoz Collection is composed of manuscripts, correspondence, research files, notes, maps, and Sandoz's personal library. In addition to her own work the collection also contains books, articles and taped interviews about Sandoz. This collection is an important source for history and literature of Nebraska and the Great Plains region. It also documents the career of one of Nebraska's most successful and distinguished writers.

A grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities has allowed the University Libraries to create preservation microfilm for selected materials in the Sandoz Collection. The GUIDE TO THE MICROFILM REELS provides a folder and item level listing of microfilmed materials and microfilm reels.
