KARPELES

In 1978, Dr. Karpeles began collecting historical manuscripts and documents, and over the years, he established Karpeles Manuscript Library Museums in 14 communities across the United States. The museums are located in mid-size cities to provide greater access to smaller populations and are open to the general public at no charge... Founded in 1983 by David and Marsha Karpeles with the purpose to inspire curiosity and encourage learning, the Karpeles Manuscript Library archives contain more than a million historical documents in the categories of literature, science, religion, political history, exploration, music and art.
