- Description:
- This collection contains a wide range of newspapers, magazines, newsletters, and other periodically-published literature from the greater Lansing area. The materials are are a mix of general news (some specific to certain areas of Lansing or other nearby communities); industry and in-house publications; club or organization newsletters and papers; marketing and advertising magazines and newsletters; or political papers. Most are loose individual issues but some of the titles have been bound and/or are on microfilm. Some are very fragile and cannot be photocopied or scanned, but camera photography may be possible. For several titles, we only have a single issue, but for titles with a range of issues/years, there are often missing issues. See the container lists for each title for complete holdings. The collection does not include large runs of the major Lansing newspapers, such as the State Journal, which are available on microfilm or online through library or other databases. Container lists are updated as we add new titles and issues to the collection.

- Description:
- In spring 2008, a committee of Lansing Rotary Club members and community leaders convened to plan Lansing's sesquicentennial (150th) anniversary celebrations. One of the many projects was an oral history initiative spearheaded by retired MSU Arts and Letters professor and author Marilyn Culpepper. Students in MSU's American Studies 881 course assisted in the creation, transcription, and editing of the recordings. The purpose of the project was to provide historical context for the year-long celebrations. About 20 interviews were done, and have been digitized by the Forest Parke Library & Archvies at CADL in 2015 and 2016. Any interview for which there is a signed release on file is available for access online; those without releases may be accessed in the Local History Room at CADL. All interviews have been transcribed and are available in the Lansing 150 booklet that is linked in each record.

- Description:
- This collection contains Current Conditions Reports concerning the General Motors Lansing plants 1, 2, 3, and 6. The reports were produced for General Motors and ENCORE, a wholly-owned subsidiary of GM, as part of the initial step in the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Corrective Action program being implemented at the facility. The reports were submitted to the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality by the ARCADIS company of Brighton, Mich., in July and August of 2008. The Current Conditions Report for GM Lansing plant 1 consists of three large three-ring binders (volumes I-III). Plant 1 is located at 920 Townsend Street, between I-496 and the Grand River. It has been in operation since 1902, mainly in the manufacture of parts for and assembly of automobiles. Appendices for this report are included on CD-ROMs within the binders. The CCR for GM Lansing plants 2, 3, and 6 are combined into two large three-ring binders (volumes I-II) due to those plants sharing common boundaries and waste handling systems. The plants were located at 2801 West Saginaw Street, 2800 West Saginaw Street, and 401 North Verlinden Street on the west side of Lansing and/or in Lansing Township. All were demolished in the mid-2000s. Plant 2 buildings were constructed between 1900 and 1910; plant 3 buildings were built in the 1930s. Both ceased operations in 2006. Plant 6 was in operation beginning in 1921, and was demolished in 2008.

- Description:
- "The Voices of Lansing: An Oral History" was a project sponsored by the Lansing Public Library, the History Committee of the Lansing Regional Chamber of Commerce, and the R. E. Olds Transportation Museum with assistance from the Oldsmobile History Center. Interviews took place between 1988 and 1991. It was supported by a City of Lansing Outstate Equity Grant. The goal was to create a body of oral history recordings documenting the Capital region with the following focuses: -The Library would focus on surviving mayors and government personalities. -The Museum would focus on contributors to the area automotive industry. -The Chamber would focus on leaders of business and industry, and workers long left out of printed resources. Although the project never was completed, due mostly to hangups in the transcription process, many interviews were done and have been digitized by the Forest Parke Library & Archvies at CADL in 2015. Any interview for which there is a signed release on file is available for listening online; those without releases may be accessed in the Local History Room at CADL. If a transcript or summary of a recording is available, it is also linked to its record online in PDF format.
