Introduction to the University of Louisville Archives and Records Center
- Katherine Burger Johnson
Abstract
Established in 1973, the University of Louisville Archives and Records Center (UARC) has become a research repository of national significance. It is known for its urban history collections, nineteenth- and twentieth-century records of important Louisville, Kentucky-area businesses, cultural organizations, social service agencies, and churches, and the personal papers of political figures, scholars, women, and members of the Jewish and African-American communities. UARC also administers the university's Oral History Center, preserving more than eighteen hundred interviews with community leaders, members of ethnic communities, workers, business executives, and university students, faculty, and administrators.
