According to the Stanford Libraries website, the R. Buckminster Fuller Collection “documents the life and work of this 20th century polymath, and contains his personal archive, correspondence, manuscripts, drawings and audio-visual materials relating to his career as an architect, mathematician, inventor and social critic.
