COVID-19 and the UConn Nation - Documentation Submission Form
Archives & Special Collections (ASC) is documenting the wide range of recent reactions, experiences, and activities undertaken by members of the UConn Nation as we all adjust, struggle and move forward through the challenges of a world-wide pandemic.
We're reaching out to the UConn community–students, faculty, staff, administrators, alumni, and other UConn community members–to share your stories, in whatever form you wish, to be collected, preserved for posterity, and made accessible for research and study in the UConn COVID-19 Collection. Examples can include audio files, social media posts, emails, screenshots, photographs, blog posts, journaling, zines, interviews, and more.
If you are interested in donating your documents, photographs, recordings, or other personal materials to the UConn COVID-19 Collection, please complete this form. After we receive your information, we’ll send you a link to a Google Drive folder to upload your files. The folder will contain a deed of gift for you to sign. This form documents your contribution and indicates how your donation may be used. If you have physical material you'd like to donate, we will follow up via email to make arrangements for transferring this material to ASC.
Materials collected as part of this documentation will be reviewed and processed before access will be granted; given the unusual circumstances resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, this may take some time before the collection is available for research.
