The University of Rochester’s Archive-It collections are focused on two categories of websites: 1) pages created by or related to the University community (including areas such as administration, communications, and student life), and 2) a selection of pages that align with the broader collection-development goals of River Campus Libraries’ Department of Rare Books, Special Collections, and Preservation (including sites that document the history and culture of Rochester, New York).
