The collections
are located in various repositories throughout USC, but they
are increasingly being brought together digitally and administratively
under the auspices of the research center. The enormous depth
and range of these materials - along with additional primary
resources that are being acquired - have considerable potential
to support interdisciplinary research across the university,
and beyond its campuses.
In its
new home in the beautifully refurbished Edward L. Doheny, Jr.
Memorial Library, the research center also will serve as a central
gathering place for research and informal scholarly exchange.
Visiting fellowships, guest speakers, exhibitions and seminars
at the research center will establish Doheny Library as an invaluable
intellectual resource for those with a scholarly interest in
Los Angeles and its environs - or in the vast resources at USC
not related to the region that also are a part of the research
center's holdings.
