1960 red raiders University Archives material includes documents and other items produced by university offices or by people or entities related to the university. This is a collection of non-current materials such as minutes, publications, self-studies, papers of retired faculty members and so on. The collection also includes popular items such as yearbooks, catalogs and student newspapers.

Past student evaluations of faculty are housed in the University Archives and may be seen during open hours. Current evaluations can be found in the Reserves section of the library.

Genealogical research material is limited. Some brief information may be found on former students and employees. The resources of the University Archives do not adequately cover former residents of Edinboro or Erie County. The library has U.S. Census covering Erie, Warren and Crawford County for the years 1840, 1850, 1860, 1870 and 1880. These are available in the microforms room. Some family names can be found by searching in the Edinboro Online Archival Exhibit.

University offices wishing to transfer materials to the archive are encouraged to call before making any decisions on what to discard and what to save. Some guidance is provided in the university's policy manual. A link to this the policy is provided below.

Requests for information can be made to 814-732-2415 or e-mail you request to obringer@edinboro.edu.
