The University Scrapbook Collections documents the publicity and public face of the University from the later nineteenth to early twentieth centuries.

Some important specific topics include publicity regarding the Scott Nearing case regarding academic freedom at the Wharton School. The School of Medicine scrapbook for 1902 to 1909 includes clippings relating to general medical and hospital topics in Philadelphia.
