Our general archival collections cover many subject areas, but focus primarily on:
- Houston architecture
- Houston and Texas history
- Houston literature
- Houston performing arts
- Jagdish Mehra (historian of quantum physics)
- USS Houston (CA-30)

Special Collections is also developing a Houston Hip Hop Collection on DJ Screw and other artists, which is not yet open to the public. For information about donating, please contact Julie Grob.
Special Collections has three other collecting units for archival materials: Houston History Archives, University Archives, and Women's Archives.
