In 2005, the Wolf Law Library at the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia, started a special collection recreating the library of George Wythe. Development of the George Wythe Collection led library director Jim Heller to create a special room in the library to house and display the Wythe Collection. Conceived as supplement to the book display, the George Wythe Encyclopedia project began on February 15, 2013. The project expanded from a bibliographic focus to include all aspects of Wythe's life and careers. The Encyclopedia is intended to provide a single source of information relating to George Wythe and to facilitate future scholarship.
Wythepedia is a closed wiki; only approved users may add or edit articles. Please contact the managing editor with questions and comments.
