The University of Connecticut’s Archives & Special Collections holds many collections related to Connecticut history. This guide provides a curated selection of published materials, manuscript collections, and digitized materials available in the CTDA that provide insights into Connecticut history and culture. The guide is meant to provide a starting point for research into Connecticut history and culture collections in UConn's Archives & Special Collections--it is not a comprehensive listing of all materials related to these topics held by the UConn Archives & Special Collections.
Several pages of this guide draw from previous work done by Archives & Special Collections staff and student workers presented through Collection Spotlights hosted on the Archives & Special Collections blog. These posts are linked throughout the guide, and can provide you with additional information and resources on the topics covered on the guide.
The 10 tips for Navigating Archival Research slides were originally created by Melica Stinnett in 2022 for the Archives & Special Collections blog.
