Athlete Collections



Greetings. This is a question which might be most applicable to college and university archivists, although I welcome advice from anyone.  Are there any repositories which actively solicit collections from professional athletes?  Here at the University of North Dakota, we have had several former student athletes go on to lengthy professional careers, and I was wondering if anyone is collecting this type of material.  If anyone would be willing to share the process involved, the types of material received and pitfalls and problems encountered, I would be most thankful.  Thanks.
