The LSUS Archives
and Special Collections contains over 600 individual collections, including numerous important
historical records and manuscripts relating to the Shreveport area, northwest Louisiana,
and the lower Red River region commonly known as the Ark-La-Tex. The Archives
collects, preserves, and makes available to researchers the rich and colorful heritage
of this region. Approximately 5,000 linear feet of records and manuscripts and over
one million photographs and negatives document the history and culture
of the region from its earliest settlement to the present.
