Archival Collections and Management
About
The Archival Collections and Management unit preserves, and makes accessible the official records of the University of Notre Dame. This historically valuable material documents the academic and administrative responsibilities of the University as well as the experiences of its students, alumni, officers, faculty, staff, and benefactors. In addition, the University Archives, through its records management program, provides record retention and retrieval services to campus offices.
The ACM unit also collects and maintains records, papers, photographs, printed material, and audio-visual material that document the life of the Catholic Church, and is recognized as one of the nation's foremost archival repositories for the study of American Catholicism.
