大学档案馆

lol菠菜竞猜 our Archives

The Genesee Community 大学档案馆 is located in room D176 in the Alfred C. 奥康奈尔图书馆.

The diverse Archives collection includes yearbooks, 学生报纸, 照片, 大学目录, graduation programs, administrative reports, Board of Trustees minutes, student-created publications such as creative writing booklets, and a myriad of other documents produced by or about the college. A highlight is the scrapbook collection (1963 to present) which outlines the history of the college as documented through local newspaper clippings. Early scrapbooks also contain special first 照片 of the college and documents including letters from the community endorsing the establishment of the college.

Archive materials provide a wonderful historical resource for the college community, but may be unique and irreplaceable, therefore they do not circulate and may be viewed only with the assistance of library staff. For inquiries regarding materials available, please contact 辛迪Hagelberger.

History of 大学档案馆

The Genesee Community 大学档案馆 collection was started by Betty Lane, original assistant dean of the Alfred C. 奥康奈尔图书馆. Betty established the library when the college opened its doors in August of 1967, and collected many college-related materials throughout her long career at the college until her first retirement in 1990. She was the first female faculty and librarian at GCC. In 1991 she returned in a new part-time capacity as Archivist and began the process of formally organizing the Archives collection. When the library was renovated in 2000, a small room was designated to house the growing collection. Betty retired from Genesee for the second time in 2008 and her legacy and mission of collecting the college’s past has been taken up by current librarians.

Genesee Community College congratulated College Archivist and Librarian “Betty” Lane on her retirement in August 2008 where she was honored at a reception at the Alfred C. 奥康奈尔图书馆.
