The Fort Chaffee Collection brings together two sources of materials relating to Cubans who arrived in the U.S. during the 1980 Mariel Boatlift and were detained at refugee camps at Fort Chaffee, Arkansas.
Barbara Lawson was director of the Cuban-Haitian Task Force from 1980 to 1981, and she donated reports, correspondence, memoranda, artwork by Cuban refugees, and recordings of news interviews she gave during her tenure with the Task Force. These materials document the operations and policies of Fort Chaffee from 1980 to 1981, discussing, among other topics, security issues in Fort Chaffee and difficulties in placing entrants who were considered not suitable for sponsorship. Lawson donated additional materials in 2018, including correspondence, postcards, newspaper clippings, greeting cards with artwork by Cubans held in Fort Chaffee, and press and Army Public Information photographs related to the Boatlift.

Fernández donated the research materials he collected and used for his book The Mariel Exodus Twenty Years Later: A Study on the Politics of Stigma and a Research Bibliography (Miami: Ediciones Universal, 2002).

The photocopied documents seem to have been obtained by Fernández primarily from the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library, although they are not clearly identified as such.

Dr. Robert M. Levine (1941-2003) was the Gabelli Senior Scholar in the Arts and Sciences, Director of Latin American Studies, and professor of history at the University of Miami. Throughout his career, Dr. Levine exhibited a strong interest in Brazilian cultural and political history, Jewish Diasporas in Latin America, Cuban history, and Latin American history in general. His papers, donated to the University of Miami, reflect all of these interests in the form of video cassettes, periodicals, clippings, photographs, photocopies, notebooks, microfilm, microfiche, articles, and other materials.
Included in the collection are photocopies of a collection of records from the Jewish community of Curaçao in the 18th century; production materials and photographs pertaining to Dr. Levine's "Hotel Cuba" documentary on the Jewish Diaspora in Cuba; a dozen reels of microfilms of Brazilian newspapers from the 1930s; notes, photographs, and documentation from Dr. Levine's research on the Vargas period in Brazil; and two large, hand-drawn maps indicating Jewish establishments in the major commercial district of Old Havana during the pre-1959 period.
