Collections

The archives here at USF are still rather new and unprocessed, which means that there are only a few collections that are officially open. Finding Aids for these collections are available in print copy in the Archives Reading Room, and the materials can be viewed in the Reading Rooms, during open hours (M-F, 9-4). If you think there are materials in the archives that you would like to view and you don't see them on this open collection list please contact the archives at libraryarchives@stfrancis.edu.
