The ECSU Archives
exist to preserve the history of the university and make it available
to researchers. The rules are not intended to hamper research, but
to provide equitable access to materials while at the same time
protecting and preserving those materials for future use. The Archives
is open Monday - Friday, 9:a.m. to 12:00 p.m.; 1:00 p.m. to 4:00
p.m. The Archives closes for lunch from noon to 1:00 p.m. Other
times by appointment.
1) The ECSU
Archives stacks are closed. Staff will need to retrieve material
for you. Please discuss your research topic with a member of the
Archives staff so that we will be able to provide you with relevant
material and finding aids.
2) Researchers
will need to check in personal belongings, such as brief cases,
backpacks, and other materials not needed for one's research at
the service desk. These items will be placed in a locker and returned
to you when you leave.
3) Please treat
material carefully: do not trace, write on, lean on, or fold materials.
Since material in the university archives may be fragile, please
discuss your photocopying needs with a member of the Archives staff.
4) Use pencils
for note-taking. No pens should be used in the Archives.
5) Maintain
the order of papers as you find them. Treat folders of material
as though they were bound volumes - just turn the pages gently.
6) Access to
material may be limited because of its condition or state of processing.
7) Permission
to use archives material does not constitute permission to publish.
Permission to publish archives material must be requested in writing.
8) Eating,
drinking, and smoking are not permitted in the library.
9) Some book
and microfilm materials may be transferred to other parts of the
library for use in evenings or on weekends. Please consult the Archives
staff for details. Transfer of materials must be arranged prior
to 4:00 p.m. of a given day.
