Welcome to the South Texas Archives, a division of the James C. Jernigan Library of Texas A&M Kingsville.

[TAMUK STA @tamuksta]

It's today! Can you escape any of the 6 multicultural themed rooms (3 in-person, 3 online) designed by TAMUK students using archival materials? Reserve your spot today! Escape rooms not your thing? Swing by the archives, grab a snack, and relax with us! https://t.co/dLINDKcAzj

Happy National Library Week! The Jernigan has a list of activities planned to celebrate with you leading up to the JAMS Escape Rooms (6 unique experiences created by TAMUK grad students) using STA items. Stay tuned to learn more or visit: https://t.co/cw0Ucm1LlY

We are prepped for tomorrow! Swing by the archives and peruse images and papers related to the black community both on our campus and in Kingsville.

[TAMUK STA @tamuksta]

The archives enjoyed showcasing a few of our unique items at the Black Heritage Month Kickoff and panel this week!

[TAMUK STA @tamuksta]

We are a stop on this journey! It will be a cool opportunity to meet the people who work in the library and learn about different services offered. Plus free stuff!

Tomorrow is a happening place in the Jernigan Library! Stop by and play some banned book bingo (and maybe win a prize!). Then enjoy some snacks and listen to the first lecturer, Dr. Humbero Perotto, talk about the drone program! #TAMUK

[TAMUK STA @tamuksta]

Come celebrate music with us in the South Texas Archives! We are listening to records and CDs, browsing through photos, and reading all kinds of cool documents from some of our unique music collections. #TAMUK

Need a break to pet some furry friends? Opal and Max are coming to the TAMUK Jernigan Library Room 125 tomorrow (May 6th) from 10:00 - 12:30p! Be sure to stop by to give them lots of love and de-stress.

In honor of #NationalLibraryWeek, here's a picture of Ann Kirven (dark dress) at the circulation desk in 1927. She was the first Librarian at South Texas State Teacher's College (now known as #TAMUK).

We are back in action and just in time for Finals 2021! Visit the library for a fun little break. Take a selfie with any of the winter-themed windows and tag the TAMUK South Texas Archives on Facebook, Twitter, and Instragram. Good Luck Javelinas!

It has been confirmed. Punkin is braving the weather today to be here at the Jernigan Library from 9 to 12. It is in Room 114. Just ask at the Circulation and Reference desk if you need directions.

@nissaaa13 She wanted me to send you this pic.

[TAMUK STA @tamuksta]

This is Punkin. She is fluffy and loves to be petted. Helping you de-stress is her life's purpose. Don't take away her purpose.

[TAMUK STA @tamuksta]

This is Punkin when nobody visits. She takes it personal.

[TAMUK STA @tamuksta]

Punkin (and this is not a misspelling, I've seen her birth certificate) is coming to hang out and help you get through finals again. She does get depressed if people don't visit. Just saying.
