Archival and Rare Materials

The college archives and special collections bring history to life. You’ll find treasures such as college photos, building blueprints, botany books, gems from the Norbertine order and college records.

Access a variety of our rich materials online by visiting: 

• Digital Commons: a collection of select materials from the college archives
• Library catalog: a directory of books available within the archives and the library at large.
• Recollection Wisconsin: images and documents from the college’s historic past

Many of the items we preserve do not circulate or aren’t available online due to their rarity or fragile nature.

To explore these materials and others, contact Jenny Patton for an archives appointment or access to the reading room and the archival vault.
