LVC Catalogs

Although published under a variety of names, the College Catalog has been continually published since the College’s inaugural year in 1866.

Below are links to digital versions of the College Catalog and other historic Lebanon Valley College publications, such as the College Center Catalog or Harrisburg Center Catalog, the Department of Music Bulletin, the Extension School Announcement or Extension, Saturday, and Evening Class Bulletin, the Finance CommitteeReports and Supplements, and the Summer School Bulletins or Numbers. All of these titles were bound together with the catalogs. In an effort to preserve these items as a whole, they have been digitized to complement the main catalogs. They provide substantial historic insight into the activities of the College, but may not be reflective of complete runs. However every effort was made to provide the most complete collection of College Catalogs.

• College Catalogs (1866-present)
• College Center Catalog or Harrisburg Center Catalog (1951-1956)
• Department of Music Bulletin (1925-1941)
• Extension School Announcement or Extension, Saturday, and Evening Class Bulletin (1922-1949)
