Note

The Schomburg Collection, renamed from the Division of Negro Literature, History and Prints to commemorate Arthur Schomburg after his death, was first housed in New York Public Library's 135th St. Branch Library, which was renamed the Countee Cullen Library in 1951. The name "Countee Cullen Library" is used throughout this finding aid, although the library has also historically been referred to as the "Countee Cullen Branch" and "Countee Cullen Regional Branch Library."
