University Archives

The University Archives is the official depository for records with permanent historical value from the University of Illinois at Chicago.  The archives include over 5,000 linear feet of material dating from the establishment of the Chicago College of Pharmacy in 1859 to the present day.  In addition to the records of the colleges, departments, and campus units at UIC, the University Archives also includes selected professional and personal manuscripts of faculty, staff, students, and alumni that have been given to the University for preservation and use.  The University Archives is a unit within the Special Collections and University Archives Department, which also houses Manuscripts and Rare Books and Maps and Geographic Information Systems.
