In the fall of 1974, the private collection of Arthur Paul was donated to UNO's Center for Afghanistan Studies. The library then acquired the collection and it later became part of what is today UNO Libraries' Archives & Special Collections. Criss Library has made extensive efforts to add to Paul's original contribution of over 1,200 items.
