Finding Aids of the Archives and Special Collections
A finding aid is a document created by archivists to provide detailed information
about a specific collection of papers or records held by Archives and Special Collections.
Finding aids are used by researchers to determine whether information within a collection
may be relevant to their research. To complete your research and use the records, you may
need to visit us.
The following is a partial list of finding aids of the holdings of Archives and Special
Collections. Click on one of the highlighted collection identifiers to gain access to the detailed
finding aid for that collection.
