Description

The Special Collections and Archives at Collier Library at the University of North Alabama include many locally published manuscripts about the establishment of the cities of Florence, Tuscumbia, Sheffield, and Muscle Shoals.

The Rosenbaum Family papers are housed in the archives and offer insights into the ways in which local Jewish business leaders guided the area toward calmer race relations.

The archives also house the William Lindsey McDonald Collection of papers which offer additional context for local history.

The Sadie Schrader collection of photographs is housed at the archives. She was a member of Temple B'Nai Israel.
