Use of the Collections

The C. Elizabeth Boyd '33 Archives is located within the Hankey Center. Archived materials are housed in secure, temperature- and humidity-controlled stack areas for the preservation of special materials. Due to the uniqueness of our archival materials, they do not circulate outside of the Hankey Center. Procedures for use are designed to ensure proper handling of materials consistent with our commitment to preserving our collections for future generations.

Some records in the C. Elizabeth Boyd '33 Archives have restrictions placed on them for various reasons that include privacy, state and federal regulations, and issues of fragility and preservation. These restrictions are usually noted in the various access tools available to researchers. If you have questions, please contact the Archives for more information.
