UVU Archives construction update:
The archives space on the third floor is currently undergoing a remodel following the Center for Constitutional Studies’ move to the northeast side of campus.

This remodel, scheduled to be completed in the coming weeks, allows for an expansion of storage for historical artifacts and documents, office space for archives staff, a reading room for researchers, and added exhibit space.

We appreciate your patience during the construction process, and look forward to opening the archives for visitors and special exhibits later this fall!
