Q. Where can I access historic photographs?

For images relating to campus, community or regional history, contact staff at the three programs that form Western Libraries Archives & Special Collections (the Center for Pacific Northwest Studies, Western Washington University Archives & Records Management, and Special Collections).

You can also access some - but *not* all! - images from these repositories online through our Digital Collections pages. If you can't find what you are looking for, be sure to contact the Archives & Special Collection programs directly for more assistance. Another great local resource is the Whatcom Museum's Photo Archives.

For information about aerial photographs, contact the Center for Pacific Northwest Studies.
