Wilcox Library Archives

How You Can Help

People often have items they wish to donate to the Archives. We can also scan materials so you can keep the originals. Here are some things we are looking for:

Photographs from the 1970s and 1980s

Photographs of the inside of the Penn Hall observatory

Descriptions of pictures. If you find pictures in the Digital Archives and have something to add to the description please let us know.
