Located in the lower level of the Corette Library, the Carroll College Archives contains materials related to Carroll College and includes records of the college, College publications, manuscript collections of persons with ties to the college, photographs, slides, negatives, audio and video recordings, and blueprints. These collections do not circulate, but you are welcome to visit us to consult the materials you need.
For more information on Carroll College Archives procedures and policies, please visit our Library Policies page. You can also visit the Carroll College Digital Archives at memory.carroll.edu. The Digital Archives does not and will not contain all materials in the Carroll College Archives. Some archival materials are restricted for the privacy of those mentioned in them and to comply with federal, and state law and therefore are not suitable for digitization.
While the Archives and the Corette Library History Room do include thesis papers in print (see our finding aid on Student Scholarship for a list of print theses), the majority of our thesis repository can be found on Carroll Scholars, our institutional repository. All Carroll College theses written after 2011 are only available digitally in Carroll Scholars.
