Tour details: The ACS Archives serves as the institutional memory of the American College of Surgeons, a surgical association with more than 80,000 members worldwide. We collect and preserve records of enduring value that tell the story of the College and its role in the profession of surgery from its founding in 1913 through present day. Our collections contain roughly 400 linear feet of material, chiefly paper records, but also images, motion pictures, sound recordings, and artifacts.
Location and Transportation: The ACS shares a building with the Hyatt Centric. From the Hyatt Lobby, exit onto Erie St. and turn left. Immediately take a left on N. St. Clair Street and walk past the Starbucks. The entrance to the building will be the first rotating door on the left after Starbucks. Meet Meghan Kennedy, ACS Archivist, in the lobby of the building by the elk antlers.
