Statement on Harmful Materials

Materials and records in the Special Collections and Archives are historical in nature and reflect the society in which they were produced. As such, they may contain stereotypes, such as those related to race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, religion, and other language and imagery that are inappropriate by today's standards. These materials and records are retained to fully represent the historical record and are presented in their original format, without context, for research in person or through online access. These materials and records are made accessible without endorsing any historical viewpoints. If you have questions about this statement, we welcome your feedback. Please contact us at history@unmc.edu.

This statement was adapted from and inspired by The University of Nebraska-Lincoln and  The University of Nebraska at Omaha.
