Archives Month at UVU Library

The Archives is located on the third floor of the UVU Library

October is Archives month and we'd like to turn the spotlight onto some of the special projects our own George Sutherland Archives has been working on:

Mountain West Digital Library

The Sutherland Archives is a regional hub for the Mountain West Digital Library and we frequently contribute digitized documents, photos, and other items to their growing collection.

Currently, Catherine McIntyre and Brent Seavers have been working on the Pioneers in Your Attic project, which directly contributes to MWDL.

Oral History Projects

For several years now, the Sutherland Archives has been working with UVU faculty to record the experiences of veterans, peace activists, and Utah women, preserving their stories for future generations. The oral histories are unique among archives.

Scholars' Open Archive

This project created a website that UVU faculty and staff can use to share their scholarly work with the world. Scholars' Open Archive is indexed by Google, meaning that your work can reach a wide audience. Monthly reports include download and page view statistics.

UVU Institutional Repository

The Sutherland Archives is also hope to UVU's Institutional Repository. We collect photos, documents, news articles, and other items pertaining to the history and development of Utah Valley University. We are happy to accept donations, but please read our collection development policy first: Donations and Forms.
