Scope and content
Series consists of materials from various iterations of the Nouwen Letter Projects that began as an initiative by the Henri Nouwen Literary Centre under the direction of Sister Sue Mosteller, executrix of the Henri Nouwen Literary Centre, in 1998. The goal of the project was to gather as much of Nouwen’s original material as possible. This encompassed his letters, manuscripts, articles, photographs, and other audiovisual material. After the original 1998 campaign, there have been successive campaigns together with the University of St. Michael's College Special Collections to continue the collection efforts for the project.
