Since its founding in 1995, the Byron Society Collection has received entire collections or other gifts in kind from over one hundred individual and institutional donors. The catalogue of the growing Byron Society Collection will reveal its many rarities from among nearly 5,000 books and other material objects, including manuscripts, microfilms, busts, statues, prints, engravings, Staffordshire figures, photographs, stamps, coins, early advertising material, and other ephemera.

Because the agreement with the University of Delaware provides institutional support for the operation of the Byron Society of America, the collection has also become the repository of the Society’s archives, including correspondence with scholars, authors, business professionals, poets, actors, publishers, playwrights, teachers, and collectors of all ages. The letters within the Society's membership files often reveal how and why Byron collectors developed and then donated their collections, in whole or in part, to the Byron Society Collection at the University of Delaware.
