Search for Archival Materials

Search ArchivesSpace (go.middlebury.edu/aspace) for finding aids for manuscript and archival material in Special Collections.

You will not find digitized materials in ArchivesSpace, although you may, sometimes, find links to digitized materials. For digitized and born-digital materials, search our collections at the Internet Archive (go/ia).

To make an appointment to visit Special Collections, visit go/specialvisit.
