October is American Archives Month!

During the month of October, the Society of American Archivists celebrates and reminds the public that special items, artifacts, historical documents, images, and more are important to you and are being preserved, cataloged, cared for, and made accessible by archivists.

The UWSP campus is fortunate to house the Nelis R. Kampenga University Archives within the University Library. It holds three separate but complementary collections:

We encourage faculty, staff, students, and the public to visit and use the Archives. Most of the materials in the Archives are accessible to patrons with legitimate research interests without restrictions.

The University Archives is the cultural home of our institution. It's a great place to visit and get "lost" in the history of our campus by perusing original documents covering historical events. 

The Power of Collaboration!
