The Special Collections and Archives Department provides many opportunities for students to use the collections and increase their experience and knowledge through primary research. These opportunities have been made available through the generosity of private donors and public foundations.
For more information please contact the Special Collections Librarian and College Archivist Tara Olivero.
Sally Gilger Barnes '46 Archives Endowment
The Sally Gilger Barnes '46 Archives Endowment was established in 2008 by generous donations from family and friends in memory of Sally who passed away in February 2008. A 40-year College volunteer, Sally dedicated her time to various areas of the College, most especially the Julia Rogers Library. The endowment supports activities in the Goucher College Archives, including students internships, exhibits, and other initiatives that increase awareness and use of the Archives.

Mapping Special Collections for Research and Teaching at Goucher College - Student Fellows
In 2008, Special Collections and Archives was awarded a grant from the Council on Library and Information Resources, made possible by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, to fund the project "Mapping Special Collections for Research and Teaching at Goucher College."
The grant project will run from March 2009 to February 2010, and student fellows will be selected (for the Spring, Summer, and Fall 2009 semesters) to work on this project and learn bibliographic analysis and description methods as well as manuscript processing.
