Archives Information for Researchers

General Tips for Archival Research

  • Many of our materials, including Mercer yearbooks (Kinetoscope and Cauldron) and student newspapers (Orange and Black and Cluster) have been digitized here. You can always contact an Archivist if you need assistance figuring out what is online on URSA.
  • Our materials do not leave the Archives, so be prepared to use them in the Reading Room under the supervision of a staff member. 
  • Please use a pencil or your laptop computer to take notes; no pens are allowed.
  • Unless otherwise stated, you are welcome to take photographs of our materials without flash.
  • Keep track of what materials you have already used as you go.
  • Do not bring food or drinks into the archive.
