The Papers Now Include Wilford Woodruff's Personal Doctrine and Covenants

The Wilford Woodruff Papers Foundation was recently granted access by Reid Moon to Wilford Woodruff's personal copy of the 1876 edition of the Doctrine and Covenants. The Foundation was able to digitize this rare artifact, part of Reid Moon's private collection, in cooperation with the team at BYU Library - Special Collections. It includes President Woodruff's handwritten notes in the margins and will be made available to the public for the first time at wilfordwoodruffpapers.org.
