Welcome to the School of Dentistry Library Special Collections!
The Special Collections were established in 1991 through grant monies from the Indianapolis Heritage Research Grants
Project. This grant enabled staff to organize and display historical materials
the library had been collecting for many years. An Indianapolis Foundation grant
provided additional funds to continue these activities and to purchase
preservation materials. Library operational funds support the continued
development of this collection.
The Special Collections focus on the following areas:
Indiana Dental College
Indiana University School of Dentistry
Alumni, faculty, staff, and students of IDC or IUSD
Dentistry as a profession and its allied fields
Dentistry throughout the world
Dental research
We welcome questions regarding the collection and
potential donations. Please direct inquiries to library staff by
