Instruction Sessions & Tours
University Archives and Special Collections (UA&SC) supports research and learning by offering Primary Source Instruction and Tours.
Primary Source Instruction
Instruction sessions offer immersive learning experiences where students directly engage with original documents, rare books, and artifacts. Instructors can:
- Select materials specific to course topics
- Explore research methods and document interpretation
- Customize sessions to meet specific curriculum needs
Tours
These tours provide a behind-the-scenes look at our collections and work. Participants will:
- Discover how archivists collect, preserve, and manage historical materials
- Explore the stories behind our collections
- Understand the vital role of archives in preserving institutional and cultural memory
Both programs are designed to be flexible, accommodating the diverse research interests of students, researchers, and scholars across disciplines. By offering direct interaction with historical materials, we aim to enhance understanding of archival resources and research methodologies.
