Center Collections

The Center and the organizations for which it holds collections have been actively collecting materials for over forty years. Listed below are the collections currently held by the Center.

Please note that inclusion in this list does not necessarily mean that the materials have been processed. Finding aids are available for those papers and collections that have been processed. Researchers interested in collection without an online finding aid may contact the Center Director to inquire about an inventory. Researchers should note that access to collections require a minimum of two business days advanced notice. The list of collections are arranged alphabetically.

Key to the Table Headings:

• Title: Name of the collection and, where possible, the date range of its contents.
• Collection Number: This is the "call number" used to identify each individual collection.
• Size: Listed in linear feet.
• Physical Description: Number and type of containers housing the collection. Paige boxes (abbreviation: P.) are large archival containers and Hollinger boxes (Holl.) are smaller containers of varying size. Other abbreviations: envelopes (env.), oversized (OS), and manuscripts (MSS).
• Processed: Indicates whether collection has been arranged for researcher use. Unprocessed collections can still be viewed, but may be disorganized.
• Finding Aid: Additional forms of description such as contents lists, registers, preliminary inventories (pre inv.), or individual folder listings may exist for each collection. Online finding aids are available here.
• Restriction: A restricted collection is not open for research due to student, employee, university, or other privacy restrictions.
