What constitutes “private”? If Harvard has one, is this “private”?

I’m always leery of lionizing “public” when that’s often used to mean government as opposed to meaning a place the public can see it. Many non-university “private” collections are museums, like car and aviation museums, and are a passion project for someone who can afford to do it right.

I would guess that it means “not open to public viewing or available for researchers to access”. Unusually for Delayed Gratification, the infographic does not list a source.
