An account of the resource
Only a small portion of the materials documenting the Astrodome's history are held by archival institutions. For other items and collections, we have established the Community Contributions collection. Individuals and groups may ask Astrodome Memories partners to digitize their items at one of our community scanning events or can make arrangements to have them scanned for contribution to the Astrodome Memories site. While we can't share some items, due to copyright and permissions issues, we will do our best to make items available for the community to enjoy.

<p>The mission of the Houston Metropolitan Research Center (HMRC) is to locate, preserve, and make available to researchers the documentary evidence of Houston's history. HMRC is located in the historic Julia Ideson Building. Created in 1976, HMRC furthers its mission by providing in-depth reference services using materials including the Texas and local history book collection, archives, photographs, architectural drawings, oral histories, and maps. Librarians and Archivists are responsible for arranging, preserving, and indexing the contents of these unique collections.</p>
<p>HMRC collects books with priority given to materials focusing on Houston and Texas in the following categories: non-fiction, biographies and autobiographies, fiction, poetry, young adult and children’s materials, and government documents. The map collection concentrates on street maps for Texas communities, key maps for Harris and the surrounding counties, aerial photography maps of greater Houston, specialized book maps, and flood insurance rate maps. The archival collections focus on non-current records of local government, corporations, businesses, public and private associations, religious institutions, cultural and civic organizations, labor groups, educational institutions, and any other organization or group that has played a role in the development of Houston. HMRC also actively solicits the public and private papers of individuals whose records may shed light on important historical events or trends in the history of the area. Other notable holdings include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Approximately 4 million photographs</li>
<li>150,000 architectural drawings</li>
<li>15,000 rare books and pamphlets in the John Milsaps Collection</li>
<li>Numerous rare books such as a 1520 edition of The Odyssey, a 15th century illuminated Book of Hours, and the Original Houston Town Lot Book</li>
<li>Over 300 rare maps of Houston and the Southwest</li>
<li>An extensive collection of oral histories, many of which are available through the Houston Oral History Project</li>

<p>The Lyndon Baines Johnson Presidential Library holds more than 45 million pages, an extensive audiovisual collection, and 2,000 oral history interviews. Some collections—both textual and audiovisual—have been digitized for the web but many more are only available for research in person at the library. The LBJ Library is part of a system of Presidential libraries administered by the <a href="http://www.archives.gov/">National Archives and Records Administration</a>.</p>
<p>Textual records are available for viewing in our Reading Room. If you would like to visit the library, please contact us to schedule an appointment with an archivist who specializes in your area of interest. When you come to the library, the archivist will conduct a brief orientation interview, and then you will be able to review boxes of documents at your own pace. Laptops and digital cameras are permitted in the Reading Room, but we do not allow scanners. Free lockers are available. Please bring a government-issued photo ID.</p>
<p>Audiovisual materials are available for research in our audiovisual research room. Appointments are required.</p>

Description
An account of the resource
Only a small portion of the materials documenting the Astrodome's history are held by archival institutions. For other items and collections, we have established the Community Contributions collection. Individuals and groups may ask Astrodome Memories partners to digitize their items at one of our community scanning events or can make arrangements to have them scanned for contribution to the Astrodome Memories site. While we can't share some items, due to copyright and permissions issues, we will do our best to make items available for the community to enjoy.

<p>The mission of the Houston Metropolitan Research Center (HMRC) is to locate, preserve, and make available to researchers the documentary evidence of Houston's history. HMRC is located in the historic Julia Ideson Building. Created in 1976, HMRC furthers its mission by providing in-depth reference services using materials including the Texas and local history book collection, archives, photographs, architectural drawings, oral histories, and maps. Librarians and Archivists are responsible for arranging, preserving, and indexing the contents of these unique collections.</p>
<p>HMRC collects books with priority given to materials focusing on Houston and Texas in the following categories: non-fiction, biographies and autobiographies, fiction, poetry, young adult and children’s materials, and government documents. The map collection concentrates on street maps for Texas communities, key maps for Harris and the surrounding counties, aerial photography maps of greater Houston, specialized book maps, and flood insurance rate maps. The archival collections focus on non-current records of local government, corporations, businesses, public and private associations, religious institutions, cultural and civic organizations, labor groups, educational institutions, and any other organization or group that has played a role in the development of Houston. HMRC also actively solicits the public and private papers of individuals whose records may shed light on important historical events or trends in the history of the area. Other notable holdings include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Approximately 4 million photographs</li>
<li>150,000 architectural drawings</li>
<li>15,000 rare books and pamphlets in the John Milsaps Collection</li>
<li>Numerous rare books such as a 1520 edition of The Odyssey, a 15th century illuminated Book of Hours, and the Original Houston Town Lot Book</li>
<li>Over 300 rare maps of Houston and the Southwest</li>
<li>An extensive collection of oral histories, many of which are available through the Houston Oral History Project</li>

<p>Through stewardship, scholarship, and outreach, the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History increases knowledge and fosters exploration of our nation's past. As a leading history research center, we collect, preserve, and make available documentary and material culture evidence encompassing key themes in Texas and U.S. history. Researchers, students, and the public use our collections for a wide range of academic, professional, and personal uses. Our collections also inspire our own projects, including books, exhibits, programs, films, and educational materials. The Dolph Briscoe Center for American History is an organized research unit and public service component of The University of Texas at Austin.</p>
<p>The Briscoe Center's Research and Collections Division is located in Sid Richardson Hall Unit 2, on the main campus of The University of Texas at Austin. It is the Center's main research facility and the repository for the vast majority of the Center's book, manuscript, map, newspaper, photographic, sound, and ephemera collections. These include the Eugene C. Barker Texas History Collection, the George Littlefield Southern History Collection, and the Congressional History Collection. The Research and Collections Division's public services area is open to the public, Monday through Saturday. This division also regularly features exhibits of materials drawn from its research collections.</p>

Only a small portion of the materials documenting the Astrodome's history are held by archival institutions. For other items and collections, we have established the Community Contributions collection. Individuals and groups may ask Astrodome Memories partners to digitize their items at one of our community scanning events or can make arrangements to have them scanned for contribution to the Astrodome Memories site. While we can't share some items, due to copyright and permissions issues, we will do our best to make items available for the community to enjoy.

Description
An account of the resource
Only a small portion of the materials documenting the Astrodome's history are held by archival institutions. For other items and collections, we have established the Community Contributions collection. Individuals and groups may ask Astrodome Memories partners to digitize their items at one of our community scanning events or can make arrangements to have them scanned for contribution to the Astrodome Memories site. While we can't share some items, due to copyright and permissions issues, we will do our best to make items available for the community to enjoy.

Only a small portion of the materials documenting the Astrodome's history are held by archival institutions. For other items and collections, we have established the Community Contributions collection. Individuals and groups may ask Astrodome Memories partners to digitize their items at one of our community scanning events or can make arrangements to have them scanned for contribution to the Astrodome Memories site. While we can't share some items, due to copyright and permissions issues, we will do our best to make items available for the community to enjoy.

<p>The mission of the Houston Metropolitan Research Center (HMRC) is to locate, preserve, and make available to researchers the documentary evidence of Houston's history. HMRC is located in the historic Julia Ideson Building. Created in 1976, HMRC furthers its mission by providing in-depth reference services using materials including the Texas and local history book collection, archives, photographs, architectural drawings, oral histories, and maps. Librarians and Archivists are responsible for arranging, preserving, and indexing the contents of these unique collections.</p>
<p>HMRC collects books with priority given to materials focusing on Houston and Texas in the following categories: non-fiction, biographies and autobiographies, fiction, poetry, young adult and children’s materials, and government documents. The map collection concentrates on street maps for Texas communities, key maps for Harris and the surrounding counties, aerial photography maps of greater Houston, specialized book maps, and flood insurance rate maps. The archival collections focus on non-current records of local government, corporations, businesses, public and private associations, religious institutions, cultural and civic organizations, labor groups, educational institutions, and any other organization or group that has played a role in the development of Houston. HMRC also actively solicits the public and private papers of individuals whose records may shed light on important historical events or trends in the history of the area. Other notable holdings include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Approximately 4 million photographs</li>
<li>150,000 architectural drawings</li>
<li>15,000 rare books and pamphlets in the John Milsaps Collection</li>
<li>Numerous rare books such as a 1520 edition of The Odyssey, a 15th century illuminated Book of Hours, and the Original Houston Town Lot Book</li>
<li>Over 300 rare maps of Houston and the Southwest</li>
<li>An extensive collection of oral histories, many of which are available through the Houston Oral History Project</li>

An account of the resource
Only a small portion of the materials documenting the Astrodome's history are held by archival institutions. For other items and collections, we have established the Community Contributions collection. Individuals and groups may ask Astrodome Memories partners to digitize their items at one of our community scanning events or can make arrangements to have them scanned for contribution to the Astrodome Memories site. While we can't share some items, due to copyright and permissions issues, we will do our best to make items available for the community to enjoy.
