The reading room within UAHC has kept historical materials preserved and secure, as well as readily available for public research. The documents available at the reading room include maps from throughout campus history, scrapbooks from alumni and class rivalry posters. UAHC also offers reproduction of these historical materials via photocopying or digital scanning for a nominal fee.

Documenting Diversity @ MSU is an initiative started by UAHC that supports the diversity that has built the MSU community. Documenting Diversity @ MSU preserves material documenting student involvement in service groups, cultural and religious groups, groups related to professional fields or subject areas, fraternities and sororities, and athletic and special interest clubs. The MSU Archives & Historical Collections asks you to share your organization’s material to ensure that it becomes part of MSU history.

If recent history is more of your speed, the UAHC Archive-It program collects and preserves historically important University webpages. Archive-It uses the Wayback Machine to ensure that webpages produced by administrative offices, schools, departments, faculty, and student and alumni organizations are kept at a click away.
