This paper discusses the history of the Wilcox Collection of Contemporary Political Movements, an archival collection housed at the Kenneth Spencer Research Library on the campus of the University of Kansas in Lawrence. Through this article, the interesting history of the collection is revealed by way of a general description of the holdings in the collection, including an explanation of how the collection has been cataloged, housed, and cared for; a biographical sketch of the collector and information on his political involvements and contributions; and finally a discussion of why this collection will continue to be important to scholarship for many years to come—this section includes an overview of how the collection has been used over its life.
