Selected Digital Collections
Following is a selection of the most used digital collections created by the Loyola Archives and Special Collections. This list is not all-inclusive.
Course Catalogs
This digital collection includes course catalogs and bulletins of St. Ignatius College and Loyola University Chicago from 1870 to 2002. Included are course catalogs for the College of Arts and Sciences, School of Social Work, Stritch School of Medicine, Niehoff School of Nursing, Chicago College of Dental Surgery, School of Law, School of Business Administration, School of Education, Institute of Pastoral Studies, and the Graduate School.
Not all course catalogs are digitaized. The University Archives does not hold complete runs of catalogs so some years may be missing.
Commencement Programs
This digital collection contains commencement programs from 1898 to present day. These programs list graduates, university administration, and speakers.
Not all commencement programs are digitized. There are gaps in the commencement programs held by the University Archives so some years may be missing.

Newsletters

Digitization of newsletters is an on-going project.
Loyola Oral Histories
Two oral history projects were conducted documenting the history of Loyola University Chicago - the Loyola Faculty and Staff Oral History Project and the Loyola University Chicago Oral History Project. This digital collection contains these oral history interviews.
Not all interviews are available online as digitization and transcription of oral history interviews are ongoing.
