Collections in the Archives

Many of our collections have a catalog record available online through the Salzmann Library.  Please note that only the catalog record is available online, not the content of the collection.  If you have a specific question or would like access to an open collection please contact the archives to set up an appointment.  We are open by appointment only.

To access the catalog records please follow these directions:

1. Go to the TOPCAT Web site
2. Do a keyword search by clicking on the keyword bar.
3. Enter the words you want, select a material type of "Archives," select a location of "St. Francis Seminary," and click on the search button.
4. Click on the blue link to bring up each individual record. Department of Archives records will have a location listed of "SFS CC Archives."

If you have questions about searching, please contact us. There is also a useful tutorial you can use at the bottom of the TOPCAT ("Welcome to TOPCAT") Screen.

Alternatively, a list of our collections is available here.  To obtain a copy of a finding aid please contact the archives.
