New Hours in Special Collections for Spring 2026

Beginning January 26, the Reading Room will be closed on Mondays. This will allow staff time to focus on collection care, including organizing archival material, digitization, and conservation needs. We will be available by appointment on those days, so please reach out to Archives@missouristate.edu or 417-836-5428 to schedule research consultations or class visits.
Hours will remain 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Friday (closed University holidays.) Thank you for your understanding. We look forward to making additional historical documents easily accessible to researchers. If there are questions on this change, please contact Anne Baker, head of Special Collections, at annebaker@missouristate.edu or 417-836-5428.
