About the Montana State University Archives Trout and Salmonid Artwork Collection

The Montana State University Archives Trout and Salmonid Artwork Collection

What is it?

The MSU Trout and Salmonid Artwork Collection holds images of sample artwork found in the Montana State University Library Trout and Salmonid Special Collection. The Trout and Salmonid Special Collection scope encompassestrout and salmon biology, ecology, angling, politics, economics, culinary arts, spiritual, literary and philosophical works found in books, periodicals, government publications, scientific reports, diaries, theses and dissertations from the mid 18th century (1700's) through the early 21st century (2015).

Since the Library's beginnings in the late Nineteenth Century, the MSU Library has strived to develop a world-class research collection in support of the academic goals of our university, including those of local interest with national and international resonance. Sixty years of research on fish and fisheries management has given MSU a strong tradition on which to build the nation's preeminent trout and salmonid collection. Not only does the Montana State University Library Trout and Salmonid Special Collection support this world–class research, but it is a focal point of local and regional pride for those who care about the salmonid species’ well being and about the waters that flow through this region. Housed in the MSU Libraries’ Merrill G. Burlingame Special Collections, this collection is open to the public for use on the premises in a controlled archival environment.
