Exploring Wild Northwest Florida by The University Archives and West Florida History Center is one of the largest research collections in existence on West Florida, its history, development, and people from earliest settlement to the present, covering aspects of the region. In addition, we are also the archives of the University of West Florida and collect the University's publications and memorabilia. A collection may consist of personal papers, manuscripts, genealogical and business records, photographs, maps, audio and video materials, and other sources of information.
You may get started by searching in the following online catalog of our archives. Note that this represents only a small portion of our actual collection and holdings; therefore, you may want to visit our archives in person. If a collection inventory is not online (see ArchiveSpace below), then it is available in the basement of the John C. Pace Library.
