Special Collections & Archives

Discover the rich and multifaceted history of Las Vegas and Southern Nevada at the UNLV Libraries Special Collections and Archives. Located on the third floor of Lied Library, these unique materials—ranging from manuscripts and maps to oral histories and rare books—offer insight into the region’s diverse communities, iconic industries, and UNLV’s own story. As a vital part of what makes UNLV Libraries special, Special Collections connects students, researchers, and community members to the past in meaningful and lasting ways.
