Since its founding in 1995, the Byron Society Collection has received entire collections or other gifts in kind from over one hundred individual and institutional donors. The catalogue of the growing Byron Society Collection will reveal its many rarities from among nearly 5,000 books and other material objects, including manuscripts, microfilms, busts, statues, prints, engravings, Staffordshire figures, photographs, stamps, coins, early advertising material, and other ephemera.

The collection has also become the repository of the Byron Society of America's archives, including correspondence with scholars, authors, business professionals, poets, actors, publishers, playwrights, teachers, and collectors of all ages. The letters within the Society's archive files reveal the collecting histories behind the donations to the Byron Society Collection.
