The mission of the NJIT Attic is to: collect, document, and display -- in both digital and traditional formats -- items, objects, information, and records that tell the corporate and social living history of NJIT and its predecessors. As such, the NJIT Attic will comprise the "collective memory" of NJIT.

The archives is neither the university's records management service nor its legal repository, and it should not be construed to contain the complete, exhaustive, definitive, legal records for NJIT.

Plan of action:
Each year the library will collect, preserve, organize, catalog, index, digitize, and make accessible physically and over the web the key documents of three years of NJIT history. These shall include but not be limited to photos, yearbooks, publications, newspapers, biographical information, brochures, important letters, and other key documents.

Consult the listing in the right column to see our work in progress and to read about some of our plans, projects, and collection.

1957 and 1982 yearbooks now online:
Two new additions to the NJIT Virtual Yearbook Project, the 1957 NUCLEUS and the 1982 NUCLEUS, are now available online. To date the project includes the 1951 through 1957, 1969, 1980 through 1982 yearbooks. Each year we plan to add the yearbook for the class celebrating its 50th reunion and for the first time we have added a yearbook to coincide with the 25th reunion. Yearbooks may be browsed by year or searched by last name, major, or activities, just go to: Virtual Yearkbook Project
