The MSRC Series was developed in conjunction with the Howard University Press in 1989 as part of the 75th Anniversary activities. The first title, Black Bibliophiles and Collectors: Preservers of Black History was published in 1990. The series was designed to maximize the vast library, manuscript, archival and graphic resources of the MSRC in order to substantially impact upon Howard University’s contributions to the scholarly study and interpretation of the Black experience. This would be achieved by developing a program of sponsored research, including interns and research fellows, and developing a publications program to exploit the vast and rich resources of the MSRC’s various collections. Publications were intended to include reprints, conference proceedings, edited works and original research.
The MSRC also produces numerous other publications. We routinely publish a variety of research guides, finding aids, exhibit catalogs, etc. The Center may also collaborate with outside publishers on research projects.
