Archives + Special Collections

About the College Archives

The College Archives contain materials which date from the time of the College’s founding in 1961. The bulk of the collection dates from 1979 to the present and contains administrative records, photographs, campus publications, MFA theses, blueprints, artifacts, and ephemera.

Ever expanding, the development and growth of the College Archives remains a work in progress. Additions to the archives frequently come in from campus offices, and we encourage alumni, faculty members, and community members who have materials related to the College’s history to consider gifting them to the College Archives.

About Special Collections

Special Collections include rare books, manuscripts, papers, and other unique items that are important to the study of art history, graphic design, and print culture. Often items in the Special Collections are fragile, rare, and valuable and so are not necessarily available for check-out but can always be used in the library.
