Our unique materials

Help identify, preserve, and showcase archival materials not found anywhere else.

Create opportunities for research

Special Collections is a repository and cultural heritage institution at the University Libraries that's open to the public. 

Items such as photos, documents, books, film, video and audio recordings, and other primary source materials are held in Special Collections because of their rarity, uniqueness, or fragility, and because they fall within our collection areas.

Your gift will help identify, preserve, and showcase archival artifacts not found anywhere else. With your support we can:

  • Acquire collections that capture moments of history, culture, and experience.

  • Digitize our collections so that a global community can access the treasures held within the archives.

  • Showcase our collections through a robust schedule of exhibitions and public programs.
