DENTISTRY YEARBOOKS, 1904-
The Dental Department, later the College of Dentistry, the School of Dentistry, and from 2010, the Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry of USC, published its own yearbook since 1904. USC Dental yearbooks separate from El Rodeo were not published in 1965, 1993, 1997, 2007 and other years as well. The yearbooks have been variously titled.
? Extractions (1904-1905)
? Odontograms (1918-1921)
? El Molaro (1952-1972, 1978, 1988-1996, 2002-2004)
? School of Dentistry yearbook (1973-1977, 1979-1987, 2000-2001, 2005- )
? Restorations (1998-1999)
In the 1970s and 1980s many of the yearbooks had a theme satirizing various cultural phenomena of the day including: Playboy, the US bicentennial, Mad Magazine, Star Wars, National Lampoon, Disneyland, the Olympics, Star Trek, camp, mechanical engineering, board games, big box discount stores and dentistry itself. A yearbook just for the department of Dental Hygiene was issued in 2009. The 1961 yearbook was issued with a 33?-rpm record and the 2001 yearbook was issued with a DVD.
ROTC YEARBOOKS, 1940-
The Reserve Officers' Training Corps units at USC have issued their own yearbooks.
? Air Force ROTC yearbook (1972- )
? Naval ROTC yearbook "Seahorse" (1940- )

UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES COLLECTION -- coming soon
The Edward L. Doheny Memorial Library (https://www.usc.edu/libraries/locations/doheny/history/), USC's flagship library, opened in 1932. Sixty-seven years after its opening, it was closed for nearly two years for a Seismic Retrofit and Preservation Project from December 1999 to August 2001. The project was mostly paid for by FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) and included major cleaning and conservation work as well.
The photographs in this collection showcase the newly retrofitted building just prior to its reopening. Both public and private spaces are documented.
Some photographs of the Thomas and Dorothy Leavey Library (https://www.usc.edu/libraries/locations/leavey/history/), which opened in 1994 and is located just across the quad from Doheny, are also included.
