ARCHIVES
What is an archive?
An archive is a repository that houses historical documents, records, photos, and/or film that provides information about a place, a person, an institution, event, and so on. These original primary sources are used for scholarly, personal, and/or genealogical research.
Societal Collections and Resources
St. Louis County Historical Society Records
The majority of the St. Louis County Historical Society's archival materials are now a part of the Kathryn A. Martin Library Archives and Special Collections.
Please note: You may request a copy of an item is for private study, scholarship, or research only. Permission to get a copy is not permission to publish. For publication, you must obtain a use contract from the UMD Archives and Special Collections and properly cite the collection.
Veterans of St. Louis County
The Albert J. Amatuzio Archive and Research Center houses donated archival material that focuses on the veterans of St. Louis County. For more information, check out our Veterans Memorial Hall program.
In addition to donated archival material, the VMH Program has an oral history collection that is still a work in process.
