<body>

<p> The Harris Collection was donated to the Wolf Law Library by Stephen D. Harris, J.D. '67. This collection of law books is representative of what would have been found in the library of a Virginia lawyer practicing in the late-19th and early-20th centuries. The books came primarily from Roanoke, Gloucester, and Lancaster counties in Virginia. The collection is on permanent display in the Wolf Law Library next to Study Room J.</p>
