26Papers of Former Chief Justice Earl Warren on Microfilm

The library recently acquired a microfilm collection of the Earl Warren Papers which reproduces documents archived in the Manuscript Division of the Library of Congress. This 70 reel microfilm collection includes Warren's opinions as Chief Justice from 1953 until 1969, as well as his conference memoranda and 13 reels of his correspondence from 1953 through 1974.

Earl Warren, nominated by President Dwight D. Eisenhower, served as the 14th Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. The Warren Court oversaw such landmark decisions as Brown v. Board of Education, Gideon v. Wainwright and Miranda v. Arizona.

The collection is available for use in our Media Department on the first floor of the Williams Library.
