Archives Across the Curriculum

Facilitated by Daardi Mixon, Heidi Southworth, Adam Smith, and Leah Zacate

From using our digital collections to creating oral histories, the University Archives within Library Services is a unique source for local primary sources that can be used in classrooms across disciplines. Student engagement with primary sources can strengthen critical thinking, inspire the development of new creative or scholarly ideas and more.    

This workshop will introduce participants to how the University Archives has worked with campus faculty to integrate the use of or creation of primary sources into their courses. Examples from other institutions will also be shared. The session will include an overview of the Archives and Special Collections within Library Services and how we can support your courses.
