Donations & Transfers


If you are interested in donating materials, please contact the Archives at 645-2916, or via email at lib-archives@buffalo.edu.

If you are transferring a large volume of records, the Archives staff will first examine the records onsite.

Donations are considered gifts to the Archives, and donors will be asked to sign a deed of gift document acknowledging transfer of ownership to the Archives.
