The Schulich-Woolf Rare Book Collection is focused on history and culture as expressed through early modern printing. At its core are the personal collections of Canadian entrepreneur, Seymour Schulich and Queen's Principal Emeritus Daniel Woolf. Through Mr. Schulich's support, W.D. Jordan Rare Books and Special Collections has actively added to the initial 400 volume donation. Mr. Schulich also gifted his collection of historic financial documents. The collection includes documents from Europe and Asia and spans several centuries.
