The PCC Archives contain resources from the inception of the college through the present.
The chronology of name changes are:
Southern Colorado Junior College (1933-1937) Pueblo Junior College (1937-1952) Pueblo College (1952-1961) Southern Colorado State College (1961-1975) Area Vocational School (1970-1993) College for Community Services and Career Education (1974-1975) University of Southern Colorado (1975-1979) College for Career Education (1975-1979) Pueblo Vocational Community College (1979-1982) Pueblo Community College (1982-present)
The PCC Archives are arranged by originating agency or author. For example, books about higher education institutions would be arranged by under "Individual Institutions. United States." Archives, however, separately classify and store documents relating to them by organization or originating authority. The archival index is thusly arranged by individual or corporate name, then the title of the item.
The PCC Archives are undergoing a revision. The current collection subject arrangement is as follows:
PCC. Accountability PCC. Administration PCC. Auxiliary Programs PCC. Canon City Extension Center/Canon City Center/Fremont County Center/ Fremont Campus
PCC. Departments PCC. Finance & Purchasing PCC. Foundation/Alumni Association PCC. Human Resources PCC. Instruction PCC. Instruction. Committees. Advisory. PCC. Library PCC. Physical Plant/ Facilities PCC. Southwest Center/Southwest Colorado Community College (SCCC) PCC. Programs. [Entertainment] PCC. Student Clubs/Organizations PCC. Student Services CCHE CCCOES/CCCS/CCofC/CCC Government/Agencies History. SCJC - PC, AVC – CCCS/AVC, PVCC/PCC SBCCOE SCSC USC
The collection is available for use; however, it does not circulate and materials must be used in the PCC Pueblo campus library. Cotton gloves are required when handling the material to avoid oil and dirt from even clean hands from touching---and eventually damaging---the material over time.
Materials may be photocopied by PCC Library staff when doing so will not damage the material. There is a nominal per page fee.
Preservation is not limited to archives. Check out the tip sheet, Preserving Your History, for tips for personal collections as well as library collections.
