Grace Library is currently in the process of unboxing, sorting, arranging, and rehousing Carlow’s archival collections from their time in storage. Partial collections and records lists will be made available to researchers while progress is made; updated lists will be made available when possible. We ask you to please be patient while we continue this process. We anticipate having a box-level inventory completed and posted online by summer 2024. This continued process may also directly influence changes to archival policy.
During this time, we will do our best to accommodate research requests. Questions about this project or regarding archival research can be directed to Alyson Koenig (ankoenig@carlow.edu).
