CLEVELAND LIBRARY

G. White Collection of Chess at the Cleveland Public Library is the largest and most comprehensible chess library in the world. The collection was established in 1928 (with 12,000 books) when White bequeathed his world-famous library of chess and checkers to the Cleveland Public Library. In his will, he stipulated that his chess library will be kept together as part of the John G. White Collection of Folklore and Orientalia, established earlier in 1899 as a separate entity within the Cleveland Public Library.
