While MICA does not have an official archives program, the Decker Library has a great deal of potential archival material of MICA’s history. Ideally, Decker Library would become part of the records life cycle for the entire campus when it is determined that material has enduring value and should be kept in perpetuity. Due to lack of staff, space, and funding, Decker Library currently does not have a comprehensive appraisal policy to receive new materials from the college and is not actively collecting in this area.
