Palo Alto College
Palo Alto College is a publicly funded, two-year community college serving the educational needs of students in San Antonio and Bexar County. Founded in 1985, Palo Alto College’s opening was the realization of a community dream spearheaded by Communities Organized for Public Services (COPS) – a predominantly Hispanic grassroots advocacy organization –to build an institution of higher learning in the historically educationally underserved south side of San Antonio.
Established in 2013 in the Ozuna Library, the Palo Alto College Archives and Special Collections holds two distinctive collections and include manuscripts, artifacts, oral histories, chapbooks, photographs, and video. College archival records are stored here to ensure access and long-term care of these materials. The space also houses the San Antonio Poetry Archive to help capture and preserve San Antonio’s literary voice.
