This collection is ongoing.

The National College Learning Center Association was formed in 1985 in Wisconsin as the Midwest College Learning Association. From its Midwestern roots, the Association has grown to include 200 members, with learning centers and learning center personnel from across the United States. The name of the Association was formally changed in 1999 to the National College Learning Center Association.

Presidents of the Association serve a one-year term, and there are a number of standing committees. The Association holds an annual conference in October of every year, and publishes both an internal newsletter and The Learning Assistance Review, a scholarly journal that comes out twice a year. Though the Association was formed in 1985, the bulk of the collection’s materials date from the 1990s.

The majority of the records fall into one of three series: Board of Directors, Conferences, and Publications. The Board of Directors records include correspondence, minutes of Board meetings, various reports, and other associated materials. Materials held in the Conferences series include attendee lists, programs, budgetary information, correspondence, venue information, other related materials and, in some cases, photographs from the conference. The majority of the Publications series is devoted to The Learning Assistance Review, but also includes the Association’s newsletter, the periodically updated Resource Directory, and other miscellaneous articles and promotional materials. In addition to the three major series, the collection includes some financial records, revisions to the by-laws, articles of incorporation, and materials related to the NCLCA sponsored Summer Institute.

The files are organized alphabetically by subject, then chronologically. Throughout the files, there are cross-references between names of individuals, organizations, and topics. The SEE ALSO reference refers to related folders elsewhere in the collection. The SEE reference provides the proper folder heading to examine.
