Interior of a library research room

Missouri Valley Special Collections preserves and provides access to archival collections or reference and research use. Descriptive finding aids and inventories for processed collections are available on this page.  Digitized images from our collections may be found by searching or browsing the digital collections on this site.

We also maintain a Local History Index which includes citations for numerous articles in magazines, newsletters, newspapers, books, as well as factual entries on topics of interest, housing nearly 40,000 records. More entries are added daily by librarians. To view most of these items, you need to visit the Missouri Valley Room, or submit a Copy Request form.
