What is the difference between Special Collections and the Duke University Archives?
The Duke University Archives, now a part of the Rare Book, Manuscript, and Special Collections Library, is the official repository for University records and other materials reflecting upon the history and administration of Duke. Special Collections preserves material related to a wide range of subjects. See our Collection Development Policy for more details. Patrons wishing to use University records should consult Research Services staff in the Brand-Dalton Reading Room (Perkins 103).
