Conditions Governing Access

This collection is open for research use with the following exceptions: Material pertaining to individual student records may be restricted in accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Please contact the Archives with specific questions regarding access to such records.

We are currently organizing and describing this collection—which spans 180 different catalog records—to create a single William Faulkner Collection (MSS 16807) and finding aid that will improve access and discoverability. Due to the very large size and complexity of this collection, we are enacting partial, rolling closures while processing to facilitate and expedite this work. We expect to complete the project in late 2026.
