Collection

Description:: The bulk of Indiana University’s Russian Military Topographic Map Collection is made up of the Soviet Red Army topographic maps, which were produced for defense and economic planning. This collection came to Indiana University from the duplicate map room of the Library of Congress Map Collection in the early 1990s. These maps cover not only parts of Russia and Eastern Europe, but extend as far north as Scandinavia, as far west as Germany and the Netherlands, and as far south as Iran. View an interactive index map of the collection (https://iu.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=3003eaf8107048aeabd74b74a1481cb4). This project was supported by a Digitizing Hidden Collections grant from the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR). The grant program is made possible by funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

IU South Bend Student Newspapers

Collection

Description:: This collection contains digitized issues of student newspapers from the Indiana University South Bend Archives, spanning 1950 to 2018. Noteworthy titles include The Preface (1969-present; 1969-2018 issues digitized in this collection), the university's longest-running student newspaper, and IU Center News (1950-1962), the first newspaper published by IU students in South Bend. IU Center News was succeeded in the 1960s by student newspapers bearing a variety of names: Cross-Currents (1962-1964), The Spectrum (1964-1967), and South Bend Campus Student (1968-1969). The collection also includes issues of shorter-lived IU South Bend student publications Future (1968), Future Today (1971) and The IUSB Vision (2006-2008), as well as a handout for incoming freshmen, Appendix A (1978). Rounding out the collection are single issues of three publications that were not exclusively published by IU South Bend students but that featured the contributions of students, faculty, and alumni: The Communicator (1977), Mayday (1980), and Michiana Music Machine (1979, which features a reprint of a student publication not held by the IU South Bend Archives in its original form, The River City Review). Print copies of all digitized publications are available in the Student Newspapers collection, 1950-2018 (archives.iu.edu/catalog/VAE2090). Other digitized student publications have been made available: find yearbooks in the Archives of Institutional Memory (institutionalmemory.iu.edu/aim/handle/10333/12443) and student journals on ScholarWorks Journals (scholarworks.iu.edu/journals/). The IU South Bend Archives welcomes donations of missing issues and/or questions about the collection; contact archiusb@iu.edu.
