The short answer is that the easiest way to access catalogs for the University of Alaska Anchorage is to go to the current UAA catalog site. On that page, if you look at the menu that starts with Undergraduate Programs, at the bottom of the menu, you'll see a link called Catalog Archive. Click on that, you'll see individual listings for the annual catalogs from the 2014-2015 year to last year's catalog. If you're looking for older catalogs, click on the link at the bottom of the list that says "Catalog Archive Prior to 2014-15." This will take you to a Google Drive page sorted by institution and within those are scanned copies of the catalogs.
Please note! Not all of the scanned catalogs are keyword searchable. If you need a keyword searchable version, you can contact the Registrar's Office with the information on the Catalog Archive page.
If you prefer to look at a hard copy, the Consortium Library has many of them in the Alaska Collection. You can search the Library catalog to find them. If you prefer to just go to the shelves, most will have a call number starting with LD91 A4915.
For extra context: according to the University of Alaska's records retention plan, the Registrar's Office has the responsibility for maintaining and providing access to the university's course catalogs permanently. This is why the online catalogs live on the Registrar's Office website.
