October is Illinois Archives Month!

Every October Secretary of State and State Archivist Jesse White, the Illinois State Archives, the Illinois State Historical Records Advisory Board and the Chicago Area Archivists cosponsor Illinois Archives Month. Archives Month celebrates the unique and diverse collections that are preserved in archives across the state of Illinois. This year's theme is "Let Us Surprise You." Did you know that Parkland College has its own archives of unique historical material? In honor of Illinois Archives Month, Parkland College Archives is rolling out its new website, full of fun and informative facts about what the Archives has to offer and how you can get in on the action.

Visit our website then plan a trip to the Parkland College's Archives to see what surprises are in store for you!
