Holdings
The CSRC Library's holdings consist of monographs, periodicals, dissertations and theses, as well as original prints by Chicana/o artists, films, videotapes, audio recordings, slides, digital objects, and over 160 archival and manuscript collections. In addition, the CSRC maintains subject files ("vertical files") that may complement your research; these paper files include a range of hard-copy ephemera, from student papers to press clippings, brochures, pamphlets, exhibition materials, and newsletters, as well as results from Internet searches. Some of these files include materials dating back to the 1970s.
Most CSRC holdings can be found by searching the online catalogs listed below. To view the range and quantity of CSRC Special Collections and Digital Collections, please follow the links below. Vertical files (described above) must be searched in person.
To access CSRC holdings in person, please review our Guidelines for Use.
At this time, the CSRC library on-site archival research visits must be scheduled with significant advance notice. Priority will be given to current UCLA faculty, postdoctoral scholars, and graduate students. To schedule a visit, contact librarian@chicano.ucla.edu.
