ARCHIVES & SPECIAL COLLECTIONS

These collections located in the Scholar's Room on the third floor contain material related to the history of the college, the town of Elkins, and the surrounding area.  The material includes papers and photographs of the families that once lived on the land that is now Davis & Elkins College; yearbooks, newspapers, and catalogs, some dating to the college's beginning; books that are relevant to the history of West Virginia; books that are valuable because they are irreplaceable.

D & E faculty and staff can have access to the Scholar's Room to use the materials, for small meetings, and for study.  For anyone else needing to use the materials kept here, an item will be gotten for them, and an identification card kept until the item is returned.
