The University of Miami Archives contains over 500,000 photographs, negatives, and slides that document the University's growth from the 1920s to the present day. Staff members at the University of Miami Libraries have been working over the past several years to digitize a sizeable part of the collection, and the fruits of their labor reside here. The visual images are divided into ten sections, including "Events", "Service Organizations", "Athletics", and "Students". The "Buildings & Grounds" area should not be missed, as it contains over 2,300 exterior and interior photographs of the campus grounds, along with some splendid aerial views. Taken as a whole, the collection offers an engaging and compelling look at the institution and at college life more generally in the 20th century.
