Access to Collections
Materials held by the Institute Archives and Special Collections are
available to researchers who visit the department during our normal working
hours. Due to their uniqueness, these materials must be used in
the department to ensure their long term preservation.
In order to assist people in identifying materials appropriate to their
research topic, archives and library staff have developed tools for locating
information in archival and manuscript collections. These include:
On-line
catalog |
The catalog provides author, title, subject,
and keyword searching for books and special collections held in the Institute Archives and Special Collections. |
Collection Guides |
A list of finding aids for Institue records and processed manuscript collections. |
Subject Guides |
Archives staff have compiled subject-oriented
bibliographies for general and/or classroom use. |
Other
