Archives and Special Collections

The Reinhardt University Archives

Located on the second floor, the Archives is a rich repository of the official papers and Reinhardt University history. The collection includes historic letters and documents, photographs and memorabilia, as well as Reinhardt catalogs and yearbooks. The Archives is a growing collection and welcomes gifts that expand our understanding of the University’s history.

Located nearby are two interesting furniture items—the desk that belonged to Captain Reinhardt, a co-founder of the University, is on permanent display, along with a desk belonging to Fredonia Blanton, Reinhardt’s first graduate who later became a long-time faculty member.

Special Collections

Over the years, the library has acquired a number of interesting early editions and small noteworthy collections. Of particular interest are the Annie Laurie Jones Cunyus Hymnal Collection, located in the Archives Room, and the Triplett Memorial Military History Collection, located on the third floor.
