Special Collections and Archives, part of the Missouri State University Libraries, is excited to announce the addition of a new finding guide available online. The Plaster Student Union Collection documents the numerous services, recreational and social activities, and organizations housed in the Student Union, later known as the Robert W. Plaster Student Union.

The collection contains photographs, publications, the Ozarks Millennium Quilt and plaque, and scrapbooks. Sixteen scrapbooks document the activities and events of the various incarnations of the Campus Union Board from 1965-1988.

As part of an internship, Ace Summers, a Missouri State University student majoring in Anthropology, organized the materials in this collection and created a finding guide. Other internship projects involved working with additional University-related collections, the Robert Wallace Collection, and selecting items for an upcoming exhibit. Ace is photographed with the completed PSU Collection in the back stacks.
