Need to find the history of your department (or college, or school)? It will likely take some research, as there aren't many existing departmental histories. Fortunately, many of our key resources are now digitized and available online.
Research by appointment
Monday-Friday 8:30am-4:30pm
The University Archives is located on the 5th floor of the Alkek Library. Research appointments are generally available Monday through Friday between 7:30am and 4:30pm (excluding holidays and energy conservation days).
Research appointments are required to allow time for retrieval of offsite materials, to reserve research space, and to allow staff to sanitize the space between researchers. Walk-in assistance is dependent on staff and space availability, as researchers with appointments are given priority. As a reminder, masks are required at all times while in the Alkek Library and in the University Archives.
For questions or assistance, please Ask an Archivist.
