The items in the Digital Collections of the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Library contain materials which represent or depict sensitive topics or were written from perspectives using outdated or biased language. The Library condemns discrimination and hatred on any grounds. As a research library that supports the mission and values of this land grant institution, it is incumbent upon the University Library to preserve, describe, and provide access to materials to accurately document our past, support learning about it, and effect change in the present. In accordance with the American Library Association’s Freedom to Read statement, we do not censor our materials or prevent patrons from accessing them.
Note on file organization and description:
The folders and files displayed below are in alphabetical order. The University of Illinois Archives uses different strategies
to arrange and describe digital files, including creating top-level folders to reflect broad categories, creating folders to reflect
the physical arrangement of scanned materials, and retaining the original groupings as received. Digital file and subfolder names are
typically unchanged to retain their original context and may have nondescriptive titles. Some files may be scans of physical originals
held at the University of Illinois Archives. Please contact an archivist at
illiarch@illinois.edu
for assistance.
