LibraryThing Has Catalogued the Libraries of Nineteen Signers of the Declaration of Independence

Did you know that in addition to the libraries of more than 1.5 million members from around the world, LibraryThing is also home to the libraries of (so far) 19 Signers of the Declaration of Independence? The Legacy Libraries project started with a Signer (Thomas Jefferson), and they've continued to add to their “collection” over the past few years. You can see the status and source notes they've found so far for all 56 Signers.
