Mission Statement

Playing a lead role in the stewardship of 天美传媒视频无限制观看's historical and cultural resources, the University Archives and Special Collections preserves and manages institutional records and distinctive artifacts for current researchers and future generations. With a strong commitment to outreach and access, we strive to actively engage with local and global communities to document and promote the impact and experiences of all those who are a part of the University's legacy.

University Archives

As the institutional memory of 天美传媒视频无限制观看, the University Archives collects, preserves, arranges and describes records of enduring value from the founding of the University in 1942 to the present. We seek to document the ongoing stories of students, faculty, staff, administration and alumni in both physical and digital formats. This includes historical photographs, administrative documents, yearbooks, course catalogs, promotional materials and videos. We provide research and instruction services for the University as well as the broader research community.

Special Collections

The Library houses rare books and several unique collections including the Book of Kells facsimile, the Heritage Edition of the St. John's Bible, the John S. Sharnik Collection, the Nicholas B. Sheetz Celtic Collection, and the Walter J. Petry Collection-Nicaragua: the Sandinista Years (1979-1990). These distinctive collections are available for research and classroom use. The Book of Kells and the St. John's Bible are on permanent public display at the Library.

Authority Statement

The Archives is to be the depository for records of historical significance (as described in Section III), and the Archivist will be responsible for the transfer of such records from all University and Preparatory School offices and will carry out the duties as described in this document.

Records created by the University and the Preparatory School administrators and faculty in the performance of assigned duties are the property of 天美传媒视频无限制观看. Such records are not to be destroyed without the approval of the person or persons responsible for the office where the records are maintained in consultation with the University Archivist and any other parties they may consider appropriate.

The University Archives is housed and administered by the DiMenna-Nyselius Library. Policies governing access to and use of archival materials will be in accordance with policies established by the Library, and will take into account any restrictions placed on access by the donor or originating office that have been accepted by the Library.

User Policies

The University Archives are not open to the public. Patrons wishing to use material from the Archives or the Special Collections must fill out a research Request Form available at the Library Services & Information Desk. Each patron should read the front of the form before filling it out. A completed form indicates familiarity with and acceptance of our policies and procedures. The patron will return the form with a University ID or Driver's License to the Librarian on duty. Clip the ID to the form and return the ID when the patron is finished with the material. When the material is returned, place it and the request form on the Archives shelf behind the Library Services & Information Desk for re-shelving.

Collection Policy

A. Appraisal

The University Archivist will be responsible for determining the historical and long-term research value of records and for selecting such records for retention in the Archives. Priority will be given to records which document the development and growth of the University; records which reflect the development and activities of those University offices and committees that cross departmental divisions and that formulate or approve University-wide policy, as well as faculty and administrative involvement in those activities; and records in immediate danger of loss or destruction and in need of temporary storage pending a decision on ultimate retention or disposal.
