Canaday Center

Our Facility

The Canaday Center occupies a part of the fifth floor on the west side of Carlson Library. Dedicated in September 1979, the Center includes staff and faculty offices and workspaces, a climate-controlled, secure storage area, and three public-use sections: the Reading Room where researchers access materials of historical value; a classroom for instruction on the use of primary sources; and entrance/exhibit area for accessing the other rooms as well as viewing exhibitions.
