Special Collections and
University Archives have had a busy summer moving shelves, boxes, and books
into a new space once occupied by Curriculum and Media Collections. For years
Special Collections and University Archives have needed more space for the ever
expanding documents of the University and the growth of collections, both
manuscript and book. This move separates the University Archives (which are a
collection unto themselves) from Special Collections allowing for continued
growth in each area.
Also this summer, Mike
Broadbent a dedicated library volunteer, has completed the typing of names from
the Max Bonzo Photograph Collection into a searchable database. This will allow
much easier access to patrons who are searching for their family photographs.
We appreciate all Mike’s hard work on this endeavor.
Special Collections and
University Archives are looking forward to the Library’s Gala this fall where
we will celebrate 50 years of service to SUU, the community, and to our many
friends and researchers that we have had come through our doors.
