| Archives/Special Collections contributes to the public
affairs and teaching functions of the University of Illinois at
Springfield by supporting and promoting the research use of primary
source materials. Its goal is to locate, acquire, preserve, and make
available to the public the most significant historical records of
Sangamon State University (1969-1995) and the University of Illinois
at Springfield as well as regional history records and manuscripts
whose research strengths support the University's curriculum. As a
member of the Illinois Regional Archives Depository System (IRAD),
administered by the Illinois Secretary of State/Illinois State
Archives, UIS Archives/Special Collections serves as one of seven
depositories in the state for local government records. Special
Collections includes non-circulating library material such as rare,
valuable and fragile books and periodicals.
Archives/Special Collections' materials are open to the public unless restricted by law or contractual agreement with a donor. All material must be used in the archives reading room. Collections do not circulate, with the exception of Oral History memoirs. Photocopying and scanning services and microform reader/printers are available. Audio and videotapes and electronic records may be viewed in the Educational Technology Media Lab (LIB 140).
