John Carroll University Archives

Purpose of the JCU Archives, about the collection, records retention policy, records transfer form, records request form, and contact information.

Attention: There is limited access to archives material during the library renovation, as many materials have been placed in remote storage. Please contact the Archives Associate with archival needs, but be aware that many materials will be unavailable during the 2023-2024 school year.

Purpose

The John Carroll University Archives house the non-current records of the university administration, faculty, and students who have been a part of the John Carroll Community as well as records having historical value to the university. These records are, for the most part, collected systematically, but occasionally by chance, in order to provide an accurate historical record of the activities of each part of the university. For each record group, the Archives preserves this content and documents the original structure and context in which it was created.This set of pages will describe what the Archives keeps, how to deposit records into the Archives, who may access records in the Archives and how to request that access.
