Scope and content
The New Jersey AIDS collection was developed in 1986 by the UMDNJ University Libraries Special Collections staff to document the HIV/AIDS epidemic in the state of New Jersey. It is purposely gathered through the collection of newsletters, pamphlets, brochures, articles, statistics, memorabilia, and other ephemeral materials produced by New Jersey organizations and UMDNJ units whose missions include helping HIV/AIDS patients, their families or caregivers; educating the public to promote prevention; and conducting research on the causes and cure.
