Vast Archive of Martin Luther King Jr.’s Papers Now Available Online

The papers of Martin Luther King Jr., which are housed at the Robert W. Woodruff Library of the Atlanta University Center, have been digitized and are now available to researchers online. In 2006 the 10,000-item collection was purchased by a group of business and civic leaders in Atlanta from the King family for $32 million. Morehouse College, King’s alma mater, is the custodian of the collection.
