Maryville College Archives

The Maryville College Archives has reopened for on-site research appointments!

Research assistance is also available via email, phone, and Zoom appointments.

For more information or to make an appointment, please contact the Archivist at amy.lundell@maryvillecollege.edu or 865-981-8352.

Due to the unique nature of our collections, we are a closed-stacks, non-circulating repository. To view material in our collections, please contact the Maryville College Archivist for an appointment. As staff is limited, appointments are strongly encouraged as only a limited number of researchers can be assisted at any one time. Though same-day appointments may be available, contacting the archivist in advance of your desired appointment time is strongly recommended especially if you have an in-depth research question, limited time for your research visit, or are traveling any distance.

In order to make an appointment, contact the Archivist directly via email (amy.lundell@maryvillecollege.edu) or phone (865-981-8352).

Here's some tips to assist the Archivist in making your appointment:

• Know what you are looking for
  • In some cases, the Archivist may be able to provide you with the information you need without the need for a visit.
  • Knowing what you need to research helps the Archivist determine how much time you may need for your visit
• Know when you are available
  • Provide two or three different dates and times that you are available to visit
• Let the Archivist know if you are traveling from a distance

To prepare for your visit to the Maryville College Archives, please review the following information:

1. Before your visit, please read the Maryville College Archives Policies and Procedures. When you come for your visit, you will sign a form that states that you have read and agree to abide by these rules.

3. We recommend that you bring your choice of note taking equipment: computer, tablet, and/or notebook with pencils. Please do NOT bring pens, highlighters, or permanent markers.
