The Sherzer Hall records provide a comprehensive history of the structure, from its initial construction including the floor plans, and photographs, as well as documenting the fire that almost destroyed the structure in March of 1989.

The Sherzer Hall records have been divided into two series: Building history and Building fire. The Building history series includes published histories of the building, news clippings, events records, drawings and images of the building, materials from its rededication in 1958 and from its Centennial in 2003. The Building fire series includes materials relating to the two fires (1973 and 1989) and the 18 month building restoration that took place from 1989-1990.
