The Library's Century of Progress 1933-34 World's Fair Collection, most of which is housed in the Special Collections Research Center, contains a majority of the materials published for the fair. With support from the University of Chicago Women's Board and private donations, 350 of the pamplets have been digitized and made available for online viewing. Also available is a searchable database of the Checklist of Official Publications of the Century of Progress International Exposition and its Exhibitors, a bibliography which was produced by John Crerar Library staff shortly after the close of the fair.
