Campus History Collections

One of the major collection areas of SCUA revolves around the history of the university. The twenty-seven volume Centennial History Series, written on the occasion of OSU's centennial celebration, provides an excellent starting point for research into the campus' history. The authors of this series relied heavily on resources held in SCUA while writing the volumes, so our collections contain much of the primary source information behind these books.

If you are interested in more information that what is contained in the Centennial History Series, see the following collections.

NOTE: This is not intended to be a complete listing of collections in SCUA. Please contact the SCUA office if you have questions.
