Title: The Congressman John Erlenborn Papers.
Summary: The documents include photos, speeches, bills sponsored by the Congressman, floor statements, office reports and details about the laws he sponsored. Congressman Erlenborn stated that the housing of a Congressional collection in Lisle is a first, since most Illinois legislators' files are sent to Springfield: "There is a certain satisfaction in knowing that the history of our government for the past 20 years from the vantage point of my service in Congress would be available locally to the people of the area I have represented."
Immediate source of acquisition: In 1985, Congressman John N. Erlenborn (R., IL) donated the papers and memorabilia chronicling his 20 years in the United State House of Representatives to the Benedictine Library.
Location of originals: The Erlenborn collection is housed in the University Archives and is accessible by appointment only.
