Louisiana Research Collection
As an integrated research library and archives, LaRC provides researchers with a full range of Louisiana library and archival research resources, from books and manuscripts to maps and images. LaRC supports almost every aspect of Louisiana research, but among our special strengths are Carnival, the Civil War, Jewish Studies, LGBT, Louisiana Politics, Medicine, Social Welfare, Southern Literature, Waterways, and Women's Studies.
Roughly forty thousand volumes and over three linear miles of archival holdings.
