About A&SC
Located on the 4th floor of the Mansfield Library, Archives and Special Collections contains some of the most unique and valuable printed items in the state of Montana. The K. Ross Toole Archives is the location of a large number of unpublished materials relating to the people and history of western Montana, as well as the history of The University of Montana. Our holdings include letters and diaries of Montana pioneers; the congressional papers of Montana politicians including James E. Murray, Pat Williams, and Mike Mansfield; and nearly 100,000 historic photographs. Special Collections houses a number of rare and valuable books, as well as state documents, maps, and pamphlets. Our strongest collections relate to the history of Montana and the region, but we also have outstanding and unusual items drawn from a wide range of disciplines, from British and American literature to the natural sciences.
