SCARC completed 2 new finding aids January – March 2025; as of the end of March, SCARC has 1153 finding aids in Archives West.

These finding aids are available through the Archives West finding aids database, the SCARC website, and the OSU Library discovery system a.k.a. “the catalog.” The links below are to the guides in Archon, SCARC’s finding aids website.

2 new (big!) collection guides were created this quarter:

Roy Haber Hanford Nuclear Reservation Downwinders Case Collection, 1942-1997

The Roy Haber Hanford Nuclear Reservation Downwinders Case Collection contains research materials used by the law office of Roy Haber, in litigation regarding radiation exposure suffered by individuals living close to (or ‘downwind’ from) Hanford from 1945 to the mid 1990s.

Dean of Students Office Records, 1943-1999

The Dean of Students Office was established in 1962 as part of a major administrative re-organization of the university to provide “a more efficient line of communication from the students to the university president.” The office ceased to exist as a separate unit of Student Affairs on August 1, 1997. The Dean of Students Office records document the programs and activities of the office, especially pertaining to student organizations, student living groups, student retention, non-traditional and commuter students, and services to students offered by the Dean of Students staff.
