An Gorta Mor - The Great Hunger Archive"The Lender Family Special Collection is one of the most extensive collections of art and literature in America devoted to Ireland’s Great Famine. The An Gorta Mor collection includes nearly 700 volumes regarding the famine and related events. Some of these volumes are extremely rare and were written at or close to the time of the famine itself. The collection is available for scholarly research and may be used only on the premises. The contemporary sculptures depicting the Irish famine are on view throughout the Bernhard Library."
