Special Collections and the University Archives

The SHSU Special Collections and University Archives maintains, preserves, and provides access to archival material documenting the history of SHSU and the surrounding area. We welcome all researchers to come and use our materials to conduct research.

Both the SHSU Special Collections, housed in the Thomason Room, and the University Archives are non-circulating collections.  All materials are library use only, but are available to both the university community and the general public in a supervised environment, with instruction for handling fragile materials when appropriate. 

To contact SHSU Special Collections, please call 936-294-1619.
To contact the University Archives, please call 936-294-3699.

We look forward to working with you!
