 Part of the Santa Fe Trail Center is our invaluable research library. A number of notable historians have visited over the last decades for the information contained within the library. One of the other interesting treasures found within old books are the bits of long forgotten ephemera that were tucked in the pages of the books. Were they tucked there to protect the article, or were they simply used as a book mark for a certain page? We will never know. Here are some of the articles that have been discovered, contained in the pages of books donated to the library.
