Preface
Special Collections and University Archives preserves and provides
access to material of pertinence to Stony Brook University's documentary
heritage. In accordance with this responsibility, the University Archives
program acquires documents and materials of enduring (permanent) legal,
fiscal, administrative and historical value. These materials have been
created or received by the University or its designated representatives.
The University Archives preserves, maintains and provides access to
these materials on behalf of the University community.
The University Archives Program works cooperatively with both administrative
and academic departments on campus to identify and preserve documents
and materials of permanent value. To accomplish this goal, the University
Archives acquires files and materials, regardless of media format.
The materials are added to the University Archives in accordance with
established transfer procedures such as: departmental transfer; gift;
beques; or purchase.
