Westfield State University Archives

Guide to the Scrapbook Collection, 1890 – Present

 

Historical Sketch:

The Westfield State University scrapbook collection covers the time period from 1890 to the present. These scrapbooks cover many campus events and world events from the past. There are currently 59 scrapbooks and more will be added over time. The current collection covers Westfield State College events and issues as well as Westfield State University events and issues from newspapers in Massachusetts. Most of the current clippings are printed from a subscription clipping service data base. Some clippings are photocopies of newspaper articles. Some of the older scrapbooks are in extremely fragile condition due to the nature of newsprint.

 Arrangement:

 These scrapbooks are arranged by date.
