College Archives Reference and Research Guide

This guide offers an introduction to researching Saint Mary’s College of California history using College Archives collection materials and includes instructions for identifying, accessing and working with archival materials.

SMCA Photograph Collection

The Saint Mary's College Archives Photograph Collection is a collection of over 3,000 photographs depicting individuals, groups, locations, activities, events, and organizations at Saint Mary's College of California. The collection contains a mix of photographic prints, negatives, reproductions, and digital surrogates.

The collection of photographs is largely unprocessed and most photographs were removed from their original collections so provenance is unclear at times. As a result, information presented alongside the photos should be verified by the researcher. Every attempt to provide accurate dates, identification, and descriptions has been made.
