Researching at the AC Archives

Search the AC Archives Online
Use the search box at the top of the page to search the collection using keywords. PDF files, such as yearbooks, are fully text searchable - you will need to open the file and repeat your search inside the document to locate your terms. You can also browse the collection by using the drop down menu next to the search box.
As you do your research, you can use the clipboard function to save records, which you can load later using your clipboard ID. If you would like help with your search results, you can email the archivist your saved clipboard ID.

The Archives contains images or language that may be discriminatory, offensive, racist, sexist or include stereotypes that are no longer used or appropriate today. The content is intended to serve as valuable evidence for analyzing and challenging the legacies of history both as it occurred and how it unfolds in the modern-day, rather than to perpetuate or endorse any discriminatory offensive attitudes or acts.

Visit the AC Archives
The Archives is located within the Barr Commons area of the school and is open during posted hours or by appointment. Please remember that archival materials are unique and irreplaceable, and therefore are non-circulating. All research is done on site, and while you can take notes with pencil while looking at records, copying is done by, and up to the discretion, of the archivist.
