Midwest Women's Historical Collection
The Midwest Women's Historical Collection (MWHC) documents the history of women and women's issues throughout the Midwest in the 19th and 20th centuries. The MWHC consists of over 100 distinct manuscript collections. It contains the personal papers of individual women and organizational records of women's groups. The collection is particularly strong in the area of social reform, women's political activism, women's professional organizations, education and politics.
