The major growth of the collection can be traced in the Friends of the Smith College Library Reports, 1948-1965. Since then additional donations were made by various friends and family members: Mrs. Hendon Chubb, James Gould, Lucretia Wells, Otelia Cromwell, Lucia Norton Valentine, Edna Stantial, Agnes Garrison, and William Lloyd and Edith Stephenson Garrison.
