Marlboro College, which is merging with Emerson College in Boston and closing its Vermont campus, is sending its archives and special collections to the University of Vermont in Burlington.
The announcement by Marlboro College says the items now held in its Rice-Aron Library will remain open to the public.
Among the items headed to UVM include the college’s Kipling Collection, which includes documents, publications, and photographs from the time British author Rudyard Kipling spent in southeastern Vermont in the 1890s.
Starting this fall, most Marlboro students and faculty will be moving to Emerson College. Marlboro announced last month that it had reached a deal to sell its 500-acre campus.
