The Wind Science and Engineering (WISE) Research Center at Texas Tech
University was established in 1970, following a tornado in Lubbock that caused
26 fatalities and more than $100 million in damage. The WISE Center is focused
on research, education and information outreach. The comprehensive and
interdisciplinary research program aspires to exploit the useful qualities of
wind and to mitigate its detrimental effects. The Center develops information
on windstorm disaster mitigation and other wind-related subjects that can be
made available to professionals and the public.

Access Restrictions
Open for research.
Some archival collections may be housed in storage outside of the Southwest Collection/Special Collections
Library building. Requests to retrieve such materials may take up to 10 business days to complete. Please
contact our Reference Department to arrange retrieval.
Audio, video, and film recordings may not be immediately accessible due to format, condition, or copyright status.
All items must be digitized prior to patron use. Because not all collections materials have been digitized, please contact the Reference
Archivist at least 10 days prior to arrival in order to coordinate digitization. Though we can digitize much of our holdings within two weeks, some media
may be fragile and require specialized digitization outsourcing, which can take up to three months for completion.
