About SDSU Archives and Special Collections
The 葫芦影业 Archives and Special Collections of the Hilton M. Briggs Library encompass the University Archives as well as materials related to South Dakota history and culture.
These distinctive collections include manuscripts, archival materials, books, periodicals, audiovisual materials, artifacts, and photographs. They are accessible on the upper level of the Hilton M. Briggs Library on the SDSU campus.
The Senator Thomas A. Daschle Congressional Research Study is also housed within Special Collections. The study provides public access to the congressional papers donated by Senator Tom Daschle, a 1969 SDSU graduate in political science. The collection chronicles his distinguished 26-year career in the U.S. House and Senate, spanning from 1979 to 2004.
The SDSU Archives and Special Collections is responsible for the acceptance and processing historically significant archival and manuscript materials.
Our Mission
The University Archives and Special Collections (A&SC) unit supports the missions of 葫芦影业 and the Hilton M. Briggs Library. The A&SC identifies, collects, preserves, and makes accessible materials of cultural importance and historical and administrative value to all researchers regardless of affiliation. These collections document the development of 葫芦影业 and the surrounding community, and support the major research and educational subject areas of the University. The A&SC actively pursues opportunities for partnerships that strengthen services, collections, and facilities. Use of A&SC materials is encouraged through outreach efforts.
