Remembering Richard J. Daley

UIC Special Collections and University Archives

The University of Illinois Chicago Special Collections and University Archives Department is the home of the Richard J. Daley Collection, the Remembering Richard J. Daley Oral History Project and other archival collections that offer insight into the life and political career of the late mayor. These collections include such archival materials as original documents, photographs, artifacts, ephemera, and an array of recently conducted interviews.

The Special Collections and University Archives Department at the Richard J. Daley Library houses collections of rare books, manuscripts, maps, and photographs, with particular strength in the social, political, and cultural history of Chicago. The collections at the Library of the Health Sciences-Chicago document Chicago’s rich history as a center for the education and practice of the medical arts. A list of our manuscript collections shows in detail what we have.
