News & Events

Archival specialists and amateur sleuths can more easily access the myriad collections offered across the IU-Bloomington campus through the enhanced Archives Online at IU. The site conveniently aggregates guides for archival collections, or finding aids, and many of these link to digitized objects such as the President Herman B Wells speeches, Jane Johnson’s Manuscript Nursery Library, and the Andrew Wylie, Jr. family collection.

Archives Online at IU currently includes finding aids for the following offices and units at IU-Bloomington:

·         University Archives

·         Lilly Library

·         Archives of African American Music and Culture

·         Center for the Study of History and Memory

·         Folklore Collection

·         Liberian Collections

·         Political Papers

·         Black Film Center/Archive

·         Wylie House Museum

·         African Studies Collection

The site, open to contributions from IU campuses, will continue to add new collections and functionality to strengthen accessibility and robustness of these important resources.
