The Society’s Library consists of the most comprehensive collection of Supreme Court history.  The collection includes biographical materials, writings by Justices, and other books related to the Court’s history.  The vast majority of these books had limited publication runs and found their way into only a handful of libraries at any given point; indeed, some works are extremely rare.  The goal of the Supreme Court Historical Society’s Library Digitization project is to preserve its collection of over 1,900 volumes and to make the digital collection accessible to scholars and researchers.
