The Baylor University Libraries Athletics Archive contains material related to our proud sports history. Items are drawn from private donors, the libraries of former coaches, institutional partners, and the archival holdings of the university, most notably The Texas Collection.

Currently, the Archive focuses on Baylor Football, with a special emphasis on the 1980 Southwest Conference championship team. As the Archive grows, it will include materials from all Baylor sports and all eras, dating back to the earliest days of the University.

If you would like to support the Archive by donating materials (which would become part of the permanent physical holdings of the University), please contact The Texas Collection at (254) 710-1268. If you are interesting in loaning materials for digitization and inclusion in the online Archive, please contact the Digitization and Digital Collection Preservation Services group by email at digitalcollectionsinfo@baylor.edu.

To support the Archive with a financial gift, please visit the Baylor Secure Online Giving site for the Baylor University Libraries Athletics Archive or contact the Libraries’ Director of Development at (254) 710-8513.
