University Communications photograph collection
Scope and Contents
Photographs of University of Idaho buildings, campus locations, people such as faculty, staff and students, student activities, and events. Photos were primarily taken by University of Idaho Communications Department or Creative Services staff.
The numbering system was devised by Special Collections staff. Descriptions vary due to the variety of item formats and separate accessions brought together to create this collection. Items were transferred to archival enclosures, most descriptions were included in the finding aid but individual items may also contain more details. The latest accession, in 2000, was salvaged after a fire in the Continuing Education building and many of the items show signs of water damage.
