Special Collections & Archives: Collaborating for a broader understanding

Special Collections and Archives is pleased to collaborate with the following institutions in an effort to provide patrons with a broader understanding of the human and natural history of the Colorado Plateau.

Arizona Historical Society, Northern Division

The mission of the Arizona Historical Society, Northern Division is to collect, preserve, interpret, and disseminate the history of Flagstaff and the surrounding region from the military expeditions of the 1850s to the mid-twentieth century. Special Collections and Archives (SCA) provides physical storage space–and access to–the holdings of the Arizona Historical Society (AHS), Northern Division. SCA also hosts a large number of AHS materials in its digital archives. A formal Memorandum of Agreement signed between the two institutions details the specific arrangements that underpin this agreement.

Hopi Cultural Preservation Office

SCA hosts a selection of images owned by the Hopi Cultural Preservation Office (HCPO) on its digital archives. Staff from the HCPO, in consultation with elders, select and describe the photographs and documents added to the digital archives. Furthermore, SCA provides physical storage space for HCPO materials in its climate-controlled collections storage vault. A formal Memorandum of Understanding between SCA and the Hopi Tribe provides greater detail and is available upon request.
