Archives

The archives are accessible to all Triton College students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community researchers.

Whether you’re looking for a specific item or information on a general topic or person, we are always available to help. 

Please email our librarians at librarians@triton.edu to schedule an appointment, request an item, or for general archival research inquiries.

Due to the unique nature of the collection, material held in the archive may not be checked out of the library. However, items can be used in-house, and most material can be either copied or scanned and saved as a digital file.

* Some archival holdings are restricted due to condition or confidentiality. 

In celebration of the 60th anniversary of Triton College, a time capsule has been prepared to be buried on Monday, September 30, 2024, to be opened in 40 years to celebrate Triton's 100th anniversary. Items for this time capsule will be on display in the Triton College Library from September 18th through September 25. To learn more about the items and their significance, please click the link below and read the chronicle written by Faculty Librarian Dr. Robert Connor*.

This chronicle will be added on Wednesday, September 18th, and will be available until December 31, 2024.
