From a New Eden in Concord to Little Women: Unveiling the New Alcott Collections

The William Munroe Special Collections is proud to announce the acquisition of several significant letters by Louisa May Alcott and two remarkable collections that deepen our understanding of the  Alcott family. The William Munroe Special Collections is especially grateful to the Concord Free Public Library Corporation and its donors, the Munroe Society, dedicated to the preservation and advancement of Special Collections, and to Tim Mather for their extraordinary contributions to its holdings. We look forward to welcoming Kent Bicknell and Alcott scholar Daniel Shealy for a program (in person or via livestream) and exhibition of newly acquired Alcott material on March 28, 2026.
