The Clark Field Archive & Library (CFAL) is jointly operated by the
Maxwell Museum and the UNM Department of Anthropology.

CFAL collections encompass about 10,000 books and over 225 journal titles. It also houses a complete collection of Ph.D. dissertations and selected masters theses from the Anthropology Department, a map collection, and an extensive collection of reprints. All these materials deal with anthropological subjects and serve the entire UNM anthropology community, including the Maxwell Museum and its Association, the Anthropology Department, and the Office of Contract Archaeology.

Clark Field Archive and Library is located in Building 11 on the West side of UNM's main campus. It is open Monday - Friday the following hours:
Monday 10-2, 3-5
Tuesday 4-5
Wednesday 10-1:45, 4-6
Thursday 9-1, 3-5
Friday 1-5

About half the CFAL's collections are unique on the UNM campus, and perhaps in the state. CFAL collections are cataloged on Libros, UNM's computerized system. The catalog may be accessed at almost any computer on campus and via the Internet.

For Clark Field policy manual, please contact Amy Hathaway at ahathawa@unm.edu

Almost all of CFAL's materials have been donated, with the exception ofseveral dozen journal subscriptions supported by the Anthropology Department and MMA.

An important source of funding for the CFAL is the MMA's annual Albuquerque Antiquarian Book Fair -- the oldest and largest such event in the state. The book fair is usually scheduled during the first full weekend in April.
