Wilfrid Sellars was one of the most important philosophers of mind in the 20th Century.  I just discovered that the complete collection of his unpublished papers and correspondence is available at the Archive of Scientific Philosophy at the University of Pittsburgh.  The collection was created by Pitt archivist Lance Lugar, who also told me it's now available.  The finding aid is hard to find, but it's there.  The Archive also has many other important collections, including those of Carnap, Reichenbach, Ramsey, and Hempel.

      Do you know if the Sellars archive is available online? I looked around the website and couldn't find that information. Although, I looked around the archive pages and couldn't find the finding aid either.

        I don't believe the whole archive is online.  If you'd like a copy of some documents, you should contact Lance Lugar at the Archives for Scientific Philosophy.
