Stanford Libraries hold hundreds of thousands of rare and unique items, both in physical and digital form. Special Collections and University Archives are two central contact points for these materials, in addition to the many branches and centers of the Libraries that hold special resources in their distinct areas of expertise. SearchWorks and Spotlight exhibits are the best starting points to begin to explore the Libraries’ holdings.
