Archives & Museum
The Cressman Library Archives and the Alumnae Museum contain documents, photographs, and artifacts related to the history of Cedar Crest College. Students enrolled in this course will have the opportunity to work with these materials and use them as part of their research. The archives are under the supervision of Nicholas Galante, Information Literacy and Technical Services Librarian.; please contact him (ngalante@cedarcrest.edu) if you have any interest in archival materials.
The Archives and Museum are currently undergoing reorganization; at some point in the near future we hope to make certain materials available digitally for use by all members of the college community.
