Abstract
The NYU Abu Dhabi Publications and Ephemera collection consists of published bulletins, curricula guides, brochures, research reports, commemencement programs, class yearbooks, events catalogs and calendars, faculty and student journals, and a few commemorative artifacts, which document academic and community life across the NYU Abu Dhabi campus, including research achievements, from 2010 - present.
Arrangement
The collection is arranged into the following series:
- Admissions and Recruitment
- Students
- Research and Achievements
- Core Curricula
- Campus Bulletins
- Campus departments, programs, events, journals
- Artifacts
This collection is a "living" collection, and is regularly being added to. Users should note and pay attention to box numbers and order; while the materials are described and intellectually arranged by series, listed in alphabetical order in most cases, containers and box numbers may follow a different order that reflects the accretions to collections as well as oversize materials.
Scope and Contents
The NYU Abu Dhabi Publications and Ephemera collection is the primary collection of NYUAD publications in the University Archives. An accumulating, "living collection," this RG consists of published bulletins, curricula guides, brochures, research reports, commemencement programs, class yearbooks, events catalogs and calendars, faculty and student journals, and other commemorative artifacts and publications that document academic and community life across the NYU Abu Dhabi campus, including research achievements. When available, two copies of each publication have been retained and are preserved as part of this collection. A separate publication duplicates collection is also maintained.
Each series may include more specific information about certain titles, their history and how they were used.

About this Guide
Processing Information
This collection has been reprocessed as part of an effort to integrate accretions and reorganize the NYUAD University Archives into record groups. A smaller, initial collection was previously processed as "AD MC 003." In November 2019, a number of accretions were added and a new iteration of the finding aid was created, which replaced the previous resource record. The new collection includes both original folders as well as the accumulated accretions that have been arranged into series.
Publications are added and integrated into this collection on a regular basis, and the finding aid is updated accordingly.
Duplicates beyond two copies have been separated into a NYUAD University Archives publications duplicates collection, RG 002-1-2.
