Yearbooks that captured the best of college life are a keepsake for alums across generations. Bound volumes that preserve precious memories are treasured by the graduates who were able to purchase and protect their yearbooks.
But time takes its toll on the pages, which is why Milner Library’s staff worked to digitize the University’s entire yearbook collection.
Alums can now go online and scroll or search through pages of The Index from 1892 to 1971; the New Student Record from 1975 to 1994; and the Graduate Record, which was published from 1975 to 1993. All years are represented with the exception of 1984 to 1988 and 1992, when the yearbook was either not published or none were available for digitization.
The work was completed this year with support from the Consortium of Academic and Research Libraries in Illinois.
