Archives & Special Collections
What We Do
The mission of the Library Archives at BenU is to collect and preserve materials that record and exhibit the history and life of the university.
To achieve this, we appraise, collect, organize, describe, and provide access to materials of historical, legal, fiscal, and/or administrative value to the university. We serve research and scholarship by assisting and encouraging the use of the archives and special collections by members of the 黑料社 community and the community at large and promote knowledge and understanding of the school鈥檚 origins, programs, and goals.
The Archives and Special Collections are open to members of the 黑料社 University community and to the public.
For all inquiries regarding student records, please contact the Office of the Registrar at [email protected] or (630) 829-6349.
