The purpose of the Faculty Handbook is to acquaint faculty with the plan of organization of the University of Wisconsin-River Falls, the administrative policies, personnel, practices, and institutional regulations. Updated editions to the Faculty handbook occurred roughly every four years. In 1999, the handbook included the academic staff of the university, leading to the title change, Faculty and Academic Staff Handbook.

This collection includes newspaper clippings from local newspapers that cover various subjects related to the River Falls Teachers College, including but not limited to, student activities, campus happenings, programs, faculty, and graduates. The Scrapbooks are arranged chronologically by year. Clipping within the books are arranged alphabetically by a paper published. These scrapbooks were compiled by Al Boeck, Director of the Public Relations Department and Journalism Instructor.
