Guide to the California Institute of the Arts Publications Collection 1964-2009 bulk 1971-2000.

The California Institute of the Arts Publications Collection contains books, directories, handbooks, magazines, newsletters, and other materials documenting a variety of aspects of CalArts including academics, campus events, creative endeavors, and student life. The collection covers the years 1964 to 2009 with the bulk of the material ranging from 1971 to 2000. The collection consists primarily of published, textual material with the exception of a few non-paper items scattered throughout the collection. The largest series in the collection, Institute Publications, is comprised of official materials published by the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts). Institute Publications include a comprehensive collection of bulletins, published by the Office of Admissions, that describe the various degree programs offered by CalArts. Course catalogs from 1968 to 2002, with some years missing, give additional information about the degree programs including descriptions of the classes offered within each school. A nearly complete set of annual reports with dates ranging from 1977 to 2004 also show how the institute has changed over the years. Student/Alumni Publications include monographs and serial publications. However, the serial publications are sporadic, with missing issues or only a single issue for some publications. Due to the large amount of duplication within the collection and the scattered nature of the publications, this collection was reorganized during processing to bring consistency to its arrangement and to improve research access.
