The Japanese American Archival
Collection
The collection is
comprised of original documents, including letters, photographs,
diaries, scrapbooks, newsletters, artwork, clothing and
artifacts.
The collection provides
valuable insights into the history of Japanese American
communities in northern California, particularly in the town of
Florin, California from the late 19th century and into the 20th
century. The collection contains significant documentation
related to the internment of Japanese-born and Japanese American
individuals during World War II and continues to serve as a
valuable resource to a broad range of users, including scholars,
teachers, students, writers, journalists and documentary film
producers.
The
Japanese American
Archival Collection ImageBase
provides selected photographs
and images, however the Special Collections and University
Archives contains more materials and should be explored beyond
the Image Database.
