llinois State University announced Tuesday its library will house a special collections archive about the 1960s pop culture phenomena.
"As far as I know, this will be the first of its kind," said Ted Nichelson, an ISU alum and author of "Love to Love You Bradys," a book focusing on the sitcom's 1970s variety hour spin-off.
Nichelson spoke at ISU's Milner Library on Tuesday as part of homecoming week, and signed copies of the book. He said he hopes donating his research materials acts as a seed.

Among items Nichelson gives to ISU are scripts and sheet music from the variety show, as well as original newspaper and magazine clips.
Toni Tucker, an ISU librarian, said possibilities for its use include the School of Communication using the materials in courses on television. Nichelson worked in Milner's special collections area while an ISU grad student.
