Preserving Historical Collections at the Kalamazoo College Archives
The purchase of preservation supplies and environmental monitoring equipment to improve storage of the college's archival collections, including 2,380 blueprints, plans, and architectural drawings of the campus and its buildings, and over 150 scrapbooks created by college alumni between 1872 and 1983. These materials document daily life in the Midwest and the history of the oldest college in Michigan.
This project will build on a previous NEH preservation grant and allow us to purchase supplies necessary to preserve historical collections in the Kalamazoo College Archives.
