The editors of the Franklin Papers will welcome visitors from the Class of ’54 to their editorial offices in Sterling Memorial Library, Room 230. The Collection was assembled by William Smith Mason, Sheffield 1888, whose grandson Mason Willrich is a member of the ’54 and a member of the Administrative Board of the Franklin Papers.  Access to the Collection is through an electronic gate at the entrance to the book stacks. A staff member would be pleased to swipe in visitors. Please call the Franklin office directly, at (203) 432-1814, or ask for access at the Information Desk in the nave of Sterling Library.
