Reference Assistance  

Materials located in the Special Collections and Archives Department reside in secure, locked areas. The Special Collections librarian will assist researchers by locating items or describing other scholarly resources--either at the Poynter Library or elsewhere--that may be helpful.

Bibliographic Instruction  

As a service to USF faculty, the Special Collections librarian can arrange meetings with students in your class to describe library and archival resources available, as well as how to incorporate Special Collections materials into academic research projects.  For more information please call or email the librarian to set an appointment. 
 
Oral History Education  
Since 1993, the Special Collections and Archives Department has collected and preserved oral history interviews that document life along the west coast of central Florida.  To assist USF students and other scholars who wish to interview members of the community, the Special Collections librarian offers occasional workshops and instructional sessions on oral history interviewing techniques. 

In addition, an on-line version of our oral history handbook is available by clicking here
