CLC Archives
Welcome to the Child Life Council Archives! The Archives Management Group (formerly known as the History Committee) maintains a collection of documents, publications, photos, video footage and other materials related to the history of CLC and the child life profession. Thanks to the generous support of Utica College, the CLC Archives have been housed at the Frank E. Gannet Library in Utica, New York since 2001. The college was awarded the CLC Spirit of Giving award in 2009, in appreciation of the institution's ongoing support in preserving our history.
For a current list of materials available through the CLC Archives, or to request digital copies of some of these items, please visit Accessing the Archives.
