About the Digital Collection
The UC Merced Library received a National Leadership Grant for Museum and Library Collaboration in 2002 from the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS) to digitize the Lee Institute's collection. While the grant was completed in December 2006, the two institutions continue to partner to add to the digital collection.
