Housed in the Drake Memorial Library, the College Archives acquires and preserve historical materials having permanent administrative, educational and research value for the understanding of the history of the college from its inception as a Collegiate Institute in 1835 through the present.
Records include correspondence, minutes, annual reports and other publications, committee reports, brochures, newsletters, catalogs, and other material in various formats including digital, audio, video, photographic, and paper that contribute to the understanding of the history of our school and its mission.
Visitors are welcome but it is best to contact the archives staff first. The archives are generally open M-F, 9-4. Donations of documents, photographs and other items related to the history of the school are welcome within the limits of available space and resources, and with the understanding that they may be used for educational purposes.
A secondary purpose is to acquire and preserve manuscript and published historical materials which contribute to the understanding of local history and development. The collections primarily cover Brockport and western Monroe County NY. For more local history information see the local history link on this page.
Archives staff: Mary Jo Gigliotti, who has done so much with the archives in recent years, has retired. Charlie Cowling is the current archivist. You may contact him at ccowling@brockport.edu, or 585-395-5667.
