Included among the Missouri State University holdings are various collections that are comprised of only a few folders. While these are discrete, unique collections, the finding aids are limited to a brief description and container list (when needed). These materials are designated with an SC (for Small Collection), then are divided into two categories (Labor and general Manuscript), and a collection number. (Example: SC-M-001)
