Introduction

Computing and the University of Michigan share a long, distinguished past. Online exhibits, publications, archival collections, and other scholarly and celebratory initiatives validate that history and make it accessible. Connectivity continues to evolve as do the archives of the university, within the Bentley Historical Library. Archivists encourage new collections from individuals and work with university offices on transfers of content.
