Conditions Governing Access

Most of the items in the collection have been tested to determine whether they function. If testing revealed the need for repairs or acquisition of missing equipment, this has generally been noted at the item level under the Conditions Governing Use note. Some material is housed in the retroTECH Lab, but much of it is in storage. Please contact the Georgia Tech Archives if you are interested in using materials from this collection in the retroTECH Lab. We will contact you about scheduling a visit.
