History and Legacy

Thanks to a digitization grant awarded in 2016 by the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC), the University of Miami Libraries was able to digitize the Printed Materials Series. This series is comprised of 60 boxes of materials which contain brochures, directories, annual reports, timetables, and periodicals. An additional digitization grant from Council on Library & Information Resources (CLIR) enabled the library to digitize even more materials from the collection including the Flights & Routes series, Speeches & Addresses, Press Releases, and Company Histories. UML’s new digital collection is full-text searchable and publicly available.
