Other new stuff in the Archives

In addition to the digitization of the Chronicle, a few other projects have finally been or are close to completed. After quite some time, the topical files from the Office of Public Information have been processed (meaning weeded of duplicates/extraneous materials; placed in acid free folders and boxes; container list typed up; and labels put on boxes).

Another project that's coming up on completion is an in-house digitization project. In Merner Fieldhouse, the Athletic department over the years have hung photographs of individual and relay team CCIW champions, all-Americans, and National Champions. We've been working with Athletics and maintenance staff down there to get those scanned. We've scanned at archival resolution and format and are close to having these finished (560 with approximately another 50 remaining). This photo is of the 1996 4x400 women's relay team.

Additional materials received that are currently in process include the financial records of the College from 1860s through approximately 1950 (when they went machine readable) and the records of the Dean of Faculty from about 1960 through the early 1990s. More about these files as we get them prepared for researchers.
