Everyone is welcome to research and explore our collections. 

Library Special Collections preserves and promotes the Library's unique primary sources in support of UCLA's academic community and the general public.

Our physical materials must be viewed in the Ahmanson Murphy Reading Rom. THEY DO NOT CIRCULATE.

You must create an LSC User Account to request materials. 

The majority of LSC's holdings are stored off-site and researchers must request materials at least 2 business days in advance. Additional time is needed for collections that contain audiovisual or collections with additional handling requirements.

Please visit UCLA Library Special Collections for more information.
