Carl F. Schreiber papers circa 1910-1957

The Carl F. Schreiber Papers consist of material generated by Schreiber as curator of the William A. Speck Collection at the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library and as a Yale faculty member.

Material includes personal papers, correspondence, writing and research files, and writings by others, documenting Schreiber's research and curatorial activities which largely focused on the German authors Harro Harring and Goethe.
