About

Protecting the Yearbook Archive

A complete collection of Michigan's official yearbooks are stored on campus in the Office of Student Publications, where there is insufficient storage space and exposure to sunlight damage. In order to preserve over a century of Michigan memories, we plan to build additional bookcases and install UV film in windows and glass doors. Help us ensure the protection of our collection of historic yearbooks dating back to the first edition published in 1896.

Why Help Us Protect Our Books?

It is crucial to have quality storage of these yearbooks, as they provide a record of a unique collection of events documenting life as a Michigan student: featuring campus life, student and faculty spotlights, sports reporting, student organizations, Ann Arbor news, and much more. We hope to ensure the preservation of centuries of memories and this will be made possible with improvements to our storage system.
