The Langston Hughes Papers held at the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library consists of a broad range of material donated by the estate of Langston Hughes, including letters, personal items, manuscripts, objects, magazines, journals, clippings and artworks. I visited Beinecke from 8 – 18th of April to conduct research on Langston Hughes. The Yale Library Special Collections are free and open to the public. All researchers have to do to gain access is to register in the Yale Library Special Collections system, which is a quick and user-friendly process. There were many truly fantastic sources to look at in the archive! I look forward to looking through all my notes and building some of my findings into a new article.
