In support of Indiana State University’s mission, the University Archives is the official repository for university records and student materials of permanent historical, administrative, or legal value. The University Archives also welcomes the donation of personal items that provides
information about the Indiana State University community. These items can include photographs, scrapbooks, unpublished articles, university publications, etc.
To donate student memorabilia, photographs, scrapbooks, student organizations and Greek Societies records, please contact the University Archivist.
Records are evidence of the university's activities and transactions, such as contracts, correspondence, board minutes, and reports. Artifacts and other materials such as photographs of events, t-shirts, trophies, flyers for events, etc. can also enrich the historical record of the University’s history.
