Winterthur Library holdings include books, manuscripts, ephemera,
and trade catalogues from the seventeenth century through 1930, as
well as an excellent collection of recent scholarly works, auction
catalogues, and periodicals. Museum collections contain domestic
artifacts and works of art made or used in America to 1860. Scholars
may pursue research in American history and culture, decorative and
fine arts, architecture, material culture and design, or related
topics in British, Continental, or Asian decorative arts and design.
Past research topics include preindustrial crafts, consumerism,
foodways, the history of everyday life, advertising, women's lives,
travel and tourism, and historical memory. Our collections are rich
and diverse and we welcome applications that offer fresh approaches
to our resources.
