The Cotsen Children’s Library was founded in 1995 as a unit within Princeton University Library’s department of Rare Books and Special Collections. Cotsen houses one of the world’s premier collections of historical illustrated materials for children from the fifteenth century to the present day in all major Western European languages, Chinese, Czech, Hebrew, Japanese, and Russian. Its holdings comprise books, prints, sheet music, manuscripts, original artwork, sound recordings, and educational cards, toys, and puzzles. Its collection of American juvenile imprints is complemented by the Sinclair Hamilton Collection of American Illustrated Books in Graphic Arts.
Since 1998 Cotsen has awarded short-term grants for research through the program sponsored by the Friends of the Princeton University Library and the Department of Rare Books and Special Collections. Scholars working at Cotsen typically explore the interplay between cultural trends and their expression in material for children, with an emphasis on the intersections between print, visual, and material cultures.
