Acquisition Policy

The Archives acquires primary and secondary source research and special collection materials that pertain to Ventura County history. The materials must reference significant or notable personalities, events, and topics of interest generating from or about Ventura County and reflect the effect(s) and impact(s) on the county made by the donor person or organization. The Archives also collects materials relevant to the University’s history and its current curriculum.
