The '''Hroswitha Club''' is a membership based club of women bibliophiles and collectors based in New York City. Begun in 1944, when women bibliophiles were not allowed membership to the [[Grolier Club]] (prior to 1976), a group of women founded the Hroswitha Club, to organize themselves around talks, research and visits to book collecting private and public institutions. Founded by members including [[Sarah Gildersleeve Fife]], the club is named in honor of [[Hrotsvitha]] of Gandersheim, a 10th-century German secular canoness, dramatist and poetess.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.grolierclub.org|title=Hroswitha Club: Records and Publications, 1944-1999.
