Note: Clicking on linked call numbers (i.e.
River Falls SC 132) will bring you to a holding record or
a collection inventory (also called a Finding Aid or Register),
not to online collections. Some
of the links will navigate you away from the UW-River Falls
ARC and University Archives website and onto the Wisconsin
Historical Society's (WHS) pages. Please direct requests
and other inquiries about these collections back to the River
Falls ARC rather than the WHS.
This list is currently incomplete: more finding
aids are being added on a regular basis. Holding
records for all collections can be found in ArCat,
the online library catalog for the WHS.
Visit the ARC Research Tools &
Information page for information and additional assistance
finding online records.
