Special Handling Requirements
Due to the rarity, fragility and historical importance of
these collections, they do not circulate. Special handling
rules must also be imposed to protect these important resources.
Please familiarize yourself with these requirements prior
to your visit. View the Reading Room
Rules and Regulations. |

Online Catalog
It is important to note that all Special Collections and Archives
materials are not represented in the Library's
online catalog. Nevertheless, searching the catalog
is the logical first step in any research project. When searching
the catalog, you may use "limit" commands to restrict system
response to items within the Special Collections. |
