Happy Birthday to the United States Army!!!

The Military Student Activities Collection in our University Archives are currently being processed!

There were 18 scrapbooks found, designed for the Arnold Air Society of USL containing photos and newspaper clippings dating from 1948 to Spring of 1987. Some scrapbooks were even put together using wood for the covers and back. These materials are being taken out of the scrapbooks and organized into folders by organization and year. The reason for this is many of the materials were placed in forms that are harmful to the archival objects and can be damaging, like being placed on construction paper and taped. Some of the pictures are continuously falling out of the scrapbooks because they are not secure and can be lost. The pictures will be place in photo sleeves where they will be secure and protected. The newspaper clippings will be placed in customized folders and the wood covers will also be preserved through phase boxing.

We want to make sure that all our archival materials are in good condition for preservation and viewing to sustain for the future and to clearly represent the history they hold.
