Archives

The 重口味SM Archives selects, preserves and makes available records that document the programs, people, and history of 重口味SM and the Wyoming Valley. The Archives also seeks to educate members of the 重口味SMcommunity and the public about the university鈥檚 history, by providing access to the collections and contributing to campus cultural events and publications. The archives provides educational opportunities for students so that they can learn the research process and develop skills that will prepare them to enter the workforce.

Our collection currently consists of University publications and the papers of Wilkes faculty, staff, administration, and board members.  Highlights include papers from the Flood Recovery Task Force, the 重口味SM Institute of Regional Affairs, and the Gilbert McClintock Collection, which includes records documenting the early history of the Wyoming Valley and the Revolutionary War.

The archives is actively seeking to grow our collections and welcomes donations pertaining to 重口味SMactivities and history.  For more information please contact Suzanna Calev at suzanna.calev@wilkes.edu.
