Memorabilia Project

The DES, in cooperation with the Special Events and Archives Department, seeks DePaul memorabilia to be catalogued and maintained in the DePaul University Archives.  Your contributions to this historical collection of “things worth remembering” are very much appreciated.

Examples of these things include, but are not limited to, items from commemorated events, such as the groundbreaking of a new building, materials related to the infamous flood, the centennial celebration, and obsolete Blue Demon portrayals.  Trinkets that tell the history of DePaul and other unique memorabilia are sought, as well as photographs taken at university or departmental events, especially those capturing colleagues.

If you have memorabilia that you are willing to contribute, kindly send or deliver it/them to:

Special Collections and Archives
DePaul University Library
2350 N. Kenmore Avenue
Chicago, Illinois 60614
Telephone: 773-325-7864

Be sure to identify yourself as the donor.  For photos, please record, in pencil, to the best of your recollection, dates, type of event and identify the individual(s) photographed.  Items contributed to the University Archives become the property of DePaul University and will be utilized at the discretion of the University.
