| The Special Collections and Archives Department of the University of Idaho
Library includes those materials that, because of subject coverage, rarity,
source, condition, or form, are best handled separately from the General
Collection. Among the larger collections are the Day-Northwest
Collection, Rare Books,
Idaho
Documents, Sir
Walter Scott Collection, Ezra
Pound Collection, Caxton
Collection, University
of Idaho Theses, Historical
Photograph Collection, and Personal
Papers and University Archives.
All of these collections are cataloged into the library's main bibliographic
catalog, each with its own prefix. In addition, Special Collections has
prepared guides, inventories, and databases to provide better access to its
materials. These are available in the Department.
Special Collections is located on the Ground Floor of the Library. The
entrance is between Government Documents and the Map Room on the first floor.
Inquiries about materials in Special Collections can be directed to: speccoll@drseuss.lib.uidaho.edu
or call 208-885-7951.
