Arts & Special Collections Research Center

The Baylor Libraries will once again offer teaching fellowships this summer to full-time Baylor faculty members (including tenured and tenure-track faculty, regular lecturers and senior lecturers) and graduate teaching assistants (teachers of record) that will support excellence in teaching and learning and provide opportunities for original research by encouraging the use of rare books, archives, and other special collections materials in Baylor graduate and undergraduate curricula.

Spill the Tea! Mark the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence by exploring the tools colonists used to communicate, educate, and inspire. The materials in this exhibit will rotate throughout the year from early education books and sermons to newspapers, printed books, and patriotic songs.

The Arts Center is open to all members of the Baylor community and the general public. The general collection is open for browsing and check-out.  If you are interested in looking our special or unique items, you will need to schedule a visit.
