Biographical notes:

During a twenty-five year period, Raymond Danowski assembled what is thought to be the largest 20th century poetry library in private hands. Upon its arrival at Emory, it has come to be known as the Raymond Danowski Poetry Library. The Library is a 75,000-volume collection of rare and first editions of modern and contemporary poetry, in addition to literary journals, broadsides, manuscripts, audiovisual materials, and even objects.
