The Syracuse University Archives established this special archives in 1990 to:
* bring together in one place materials generated regarding the disaster and make those materials available for research, and
* provide a place to personalize our students whose lives were lost; where their families can donate materials by or about them to let the world know in some way what has been lost by their deaths.
In 2006 the scope of the Archives was expanded to include all 270 victims.
