About IRSC Libraries

College Archives

IRSC College Archives are located at the Miley Library on the Massey Campus. The collection contains items of historical significance to Indian River State College and copies of doctoral dissertations published by IRSC employees. We welcome additional dissertations and items of specific archival interest. Annual reports, programs for special events, accreditation reports, and brochures are just some of the items we collect. Please send contributions to Mia Tignor. Contact the library staff at 462-7600 for assistance with archival materials.
