The papers of Lucy Lee Lewis document Lewis's career as a harpist, particularly at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music, and her relationship with her students. Little or no material is extant documenting her scholarship and service to Oberlin College. The material, consisting of correspondence between Lewis and her harp students, clippings of her students' activities, and miscellaneous items, is of a relatively high research value. This collection is organized into eight series: 1. Biographical Miscellany, 2. Correspondence Files, 3. Files of Harp-Related Events, 4. Memorial Concert, 5. Miscellaneous Program Files, 6. Miscellaneous Publications and Papers, 7. Photographs, and 8. Artifacts/Objects (Awards, Posters, and Plaques).
