Archives/records history at Lake Forest.

Archival material not under College Archives stewardship:
Some key records are maintained in other units of the College, and the Archivist will consult other offices or make referrals or obtain information as appropriate. 

College Archives locations:
Since 2004 key record groups, along with publications, have resided in the renovated and expanded Donnelley and Lee Library, in the Mr. and Mrs. James R. Getz Archives and Special Collections and in the nearby vault.  Some Archives record groups are located in another location off campus, and may require lead time for access.
