Founded in 1896, the DAR Library is a specialized collection of American genealogical and historical manuscripts and publications, as well as powerful on-site databases. The Library collection contains over 225,000 books, 10,000 research files, thousands of manuscript items, and special collections of African American, Native American, and women’s history, genealogy and culture. Nearly 40,000 family histories and genealogies comprise a major portion of the book collection, many of which are unique or available in only a few libraries in the country. The DAR Library is free and open to the public.
