The Archives and Special Collections department in the Northeastern University Libraries is an internationally recognized repository of manuscripts, photographs, and other primary sources that illuminate the history of under-represented communities in Boston, Massachusetts and the history of Northeastern University.[1]

Subject strengths include the History of African Americans in Boston, Chinese Americans in Boston, Hispanic and Latino Americans in Boston[2], and LGBT culture in Boston. Other subjects include Urban Planning[3] and Boston's Central Artery/Tunnel project (the "Big Dig"), the history of Boston's neighborhoods, and the Civil rights movement in Boston.

The Archives are free and open to the public.

History

The Northeastern University Archives were established in the Northeastern University Library in 1994. [4] In 1998, the Library added a special collecting focus, to "plan for the long-term, systematic preservation of records documenting the African American, Chinese, Latino, and gay and lesbian communities in Boston." [5][6]

The collecting focus grew in the subsequent years to include a "diverse and growing collection of historical records relating to Boston’s fight for social justice[7]," as well as "Boston’s public infrastructure, neighborhoods, and natural environments.[7]"

Collections

The Northeastern University Archives and Special Collections houses over 500 archival and manuscript collections, including personal papers, organizational records, and the archives of Northeastern University. Collections include:
