<p>In 1875, a wealthy cleric, John Morrison Reid, was convinced by Syracuse University librarian Charles W. Bennett of the necessity to purchase more books for the library. Reid soon donated $5,000 towards the purchase of additional books by the library. While on a trip to Europe, Bennett learned that the Ranke library would soon become available for purchase. He soon communicated his desire to Reid that the library purchase the collection when it was put up for sale. At least six university libraries, including <a href="Cornell_University_Library" title="Cornell University Library">Cornell</a>, <a href="Harvard_Library" title="Harvard Library">Harvard</a> and <a href="Yale_Library" class="mw-redirect" title="Yale Library">Yale</a> also considered purchasing the collection.

</style><blockquote class="templatequote"><p>The recent purchase of the great historical library of Dr. Leopold von Ranke by an American suggests some reflections. There is no doubt that this library, which numbers many thousands of books, pamphlets, manuscripts and documents of all times and all languages, is the finest historical collection in the world.... But this great and invaluable collection, which should have gone to one of the large cities like New York, Boston, Philadelphia or Chicago, or to one of the university towns like Cambridge, New Haven, Ithaca or Ann Arbor, is going to Syracuse, which is neither a large city nor a university town, but a place principally devoted to the manufacture of salt and the supply of provisions to through railroad travellers. The question immediately arises: What do the Syracuse salt boilers want of von Ranke's historical library? Had it been a collection of saline treatises, the purchase might have been understood.</p></blockquote>
<p>In an effort to secure the collection for Syracuse, Bennett contacted the oldest son of Ranke, Otto von Ranke. He gave Bennett <a href="First_refusal" class="mw-redirect" title="First refusal">first refusal</a> if the Prussian government turned the library down. Leopold von Ranke's family requested that the collection was to remain in one place and they receive a fair price for it.<sup id="cite_ref-:1_3-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In summer 1886, Bennett traveled to Germany to negotiate the purchase.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> After months of negotiating with the Prussians, who made unsatisfactory offers and proposed dividing the collection, in March 1887, Bennett informed the family that Syracuse University would respect their wishes if they made a decision within the next two weeks.<sup id="cite_ref-:1_3-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The collection was successfully purchased for around $20,000, donated by Reid, and shipped in 83 crates weighing 19 tons.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_2-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It arrived in March 1888, and construction began on a building to house the collection the following year.<sup id="cite_ref-:1_3-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>Work soon began to slow down as funding for the university as a whole slowly declined. Cataloging efforts were slow and inconsistent. In 1895, with the introduction of <a href="Dewey_Decimal_Classification" title="Dewey Decimal Classification">Dewey Decimal Classification</a>, cataloging restarted. In 1937, the director of the library considered the collection "chiefly sentimental". By the 1950s, the collection was housed at the top of the <a href="List_of_Carnegie_libraries_in_New_York#Academic_libraries" title="List of Carnegie libraries in New York">Syracuse University Carnegie Library</a> and was poorly maintained and cataloged. In the 1960s, professor James Powell began efforts to better maintain the collection. In 1977, the <a href="National_Endowment_for_the_Humanities" title="National Endowment for the Humanities">National Endowment for the Humanities</a> granted the library $50,000 and matched an additional $50,000 raised from private sources for restoration of the collection. More than one hundred volumes of the <i><a href="Monumenta_Germaniae_Historica" title="Monumenta Germaniae Historica">Monumenta Germaniae Historica</a></i> were donated by the <a href="Deutsche_Forschungsgemeinschaft" class="mw-redirect" title="Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft">Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft</a>. The library soon began working on "restoration, cataloging of the main collection and cataloging of the original manuscripts". <a href="Edward_Wallace_Muir_Jr." title="Edward Wallace Muir Jr.">Edward Muir</a> was hired to catalog the manuscripts.<sup id="cite_ref-:1_3-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1983, the complete manuscript catalog was published,<sup id="cite_ref-:2_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:2-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and by 1984 the collection had been 80% cataloged.<sup id="cite_ref-:1_3-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
