Special Collections are books and other items that have been donated to Denison by alumni and friends of the college. • The Edgar J. Goodspeed Collection contains books from the library of this well-known Denison alumnus and translator of the New Testament. The collection includes many early, rare editions of the Bible. • The Gilbert Collection contains the personal science library of the famous geologist, Grove Karl Gilbert, given to Denison to replace books lost in the 1906 Barney fire. Many of these titles deal with the historical geography of North America. • The Percy Wiltsee Collection of limited editions was acquired with the help of Denison alumnus and Trustee Wiltsee from the Limited Editions Club, which published one book per month. Each book was printed in limited quantities, with fine paper and bindings.
