3 Backgrounder Toronto Public Library - Special Collections Toronto Public Library s Special Collections collect, preserve and make available to all the documentary and cultural history of our nation. Specialized in scope, content, and format, these heritage collections that include books, manuscripts and art cover hundreds of years of history, and have been developed by the library since its inception in Major gifts from generous and farsighted donors have encouraged us to extend our collections to include subjects such as fantasy, science fiction, children s literature and book illustration. Toronto Public Library s Special Collections inspire research and exploration. Exhibitions from these wonderful resources are mounted quarterly in the TD Gallery in the Toronto Reference Library and regularly mounted on the Library s website for virtual enjoyment. There are six major Special Collections in Toronto Public Library- housed in two locations: Special Collections in the Arts (Toronto Reference Library)- performing and visual arts The Arthur Conan Doyle Collection (Toronto Reference Library)- works by and about Doyle and Sherlock Holmes The Baldwin Collection of Canadiana (Toronto Reference Library)- primary sources relating to Canada, including the Toronto Star Photograph Archive The Chinese Canadian Archive (Toronto Reference Library) The Merril Collection of Science Fiction, Speculation and Fantasy (Lillian H. Smith Branch) The Osborne Collection of Early Children s Books (Lillian H. Smith Branch) These collections number over 3 million items and feature rare, fragile and valuable books, manuscripts, art, pictures and, newspapers that require special care, cataloguing and use. Special Collections in the Arts The Marilyn & Charles Baillie Special Collections Centre at the Toronto Reference Library houses the Library s special collections in the performing and visual arts. Special Collections in the Performing Arts contains one of the foremost collections specializing in Canadian theatre history including stage and costume designs, photographs, posters, programs and production information. It also contains theatre archives and ephemera. The collections are enhanced by sheet music and Japanese theatre prints as well as materials on dance, opera and film. Special Collections in the Visual Arts contain many old and rare books including beautifully printed books and limited editions from the 15 th to 21 st centuries. In addition, there are exquisite art books, catalogues raisonnes and posters of every description. The rare books range from incunabula (printed before 1501) to 18th and 19th century travel narratives to Canadian classics like Maria Chapdelaine. The Marilyn & Charles Baillie Special Collections Centre is also home to the Library s rare first edition of John James Audubon s spectacular, Birds of America- - the wildlife artist s attempt to represent in colour every specie of bird living in North America in the early 19 th century. Painstakingly produced between 1826 and 1838, our copy of Audubon was purchased in 1903 from the estate of the Honorable George William Allan, Toronto's eleventh mayor. A landmark in the art of bookmaking, the Birds of America is perhaps the most valuable folio in the City.
4 Arthur Conan Doyle Collection The fiction of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle has always given readers an escape from the humdrum routine of everyday life. The Toronto Reference Library's world famous collection devoted to Doyle s life and works includes everything from fine editions and manuscripts to posters, ephemera and eclectic memorabilia. Much of the Collection celebrates Doyle s most famous character, the Great Detective Sherlock Holmes. The Collection is housed in the Marilyn & Charles Baillie Special Collections Centre, in a room resembling a Victorian study, where people can browse along open shelves in a manner unusual in a special collection. The Arthur Conan Doyle Collection is supported by the Friends of the Arthur Conan Doyle Collection. Baldwin Collection of Canadiana The Baldwin Collection of Canadiana, housed in the Marilyn & Charles Baillie Special Collections Centre, was named for Robert Baldwin, the 19 th century statesman and father of responsible government in Canada, whose family donated his papers to the Toronto Public Library. Today, the Centre houses an extensive collection of primary source material on the history of Canada. It includes the pre-eminent collection of pre-1900 books about Canada, written by Canadians or printed or published in Canada. Prominently featured in the Baldwin Collection are historic Canadian manuscripts, ephemera, and newspapers. An important treasure of this collection is the Canadian Documentary Art Collection. It began with a gift from the Toronto philanthropist John Ross Robertson when, in 1910, he donated to TPL over 4,000 pictures and pictorial material illustrating the history of Canada. The collection has since grown to over 80,000 images in many genres and formats. A recent addition to the Collection is the Toronto Star Photograph Archive, over 1.2 million press photographs spanning the twentieth century. Chinese Canadian Archive The Chinese Canadian Archive, established in 2016, to collect and preserve historical records that document the Chinese Canadian experience in the Greater Toronto Area. Since its beginning, the Archive has accepted 48 accessions, representing 128 linear feet of archival records. The Chinese Canadian Archive is supported by the Chinese Canadian Archive Advisory Committee. Merril Collection of Science Fiction, Speculation & Fantasy The Merril Collection contains over 60,000 non-circulating items: science fiction, fantasy and non-fiction about speculative literature. Researchers using the Merril Collection can access periodicals ranging from the brilliantly illustrated pulp magazines of the early1900s to current issues of academic and popular periodicals. Special press publications, graphic novels (comics), fanzines, fantasy role-playing games, science fiction and fantasy art, and manuscripts are also available. Special exhibits drawn from the Collection are displayed in the reading room. The collection is named after science fiction writer and editor Judith Merril, who generously donated her collection to us in The Merril Collection is supported by the Friends of the Merril Collection. Osborne Collection of Early Children s Books In 1949, British librarian Edgar Osborne gave his collection of 2,000 English children s books to the Toronto Public Library creating the nucleus of today s Osborne Collection. The Osborne Collection traces the history of English-language publishing for children. It is a research collection whose holdings range from a 14 th -century manuscript of Aesop s fables through classics of fantasy and adventure, modern notable books, book-related toys, games, art, archives and ephemera. English Canadian children s book history is a particular area of focus. Within the Osborne Collection are
5 Florence Nightingale s childhood books, Queen Mary s Collection of Royal Children s Books, and a wide range of intriguing popular materials, from Penny Dreadfuls and early series books to novelty movables and miniatures. Regular exhibitions are mounted to highlight the Osborne Collection s treasures to its many visitors. The Osborne Collection is supported by the Friends of the Osborne and Lillian H. Smith Collections. Digital Archive The Digital Archive is the public facing repository of digitized collections. It contains over 130,000 assets including rare maps, photographs and works of art, books, printed ephemera, and stage designs. The content is drawn chiefly from the Library s special collections, but also includes publications created by the Library (e.g., local history walking tours), public domain materials from Branch collections of the Library, and user-contributed content. The digital content is repurposed and curated for an Ontario audience through the Virtual Reference Library as part of the Library s mandate to serve the Province of Ontario. These resources are available 24/7 and are accessed freely through the Library s website. TD Gallery The TD Gallery is the primary display area for the Library s Special Collections. It is a space where Torontonians and visitors alike connect with our collective cultural memory. The TD Gallery hosts four exhibits each year, curated by a team that includes librarians and subject experts including curators, designers, and professional conservators. Stories are told, and histories explored through rare and unique items curated from the Library s special collections. The TD Gallery averages 15,000 visitors annually.
