Archives and Manuscripts Collections
Collection overview
The Archives and Manuscripts ('D') Collection is the Archives' most substantial collection. It comprises primarily non-University archival and manuscript collections, of relevance to the University's teaching and research areas, acquired since the 1960s from different local organisations and individuals.
The sizes of the individual collections vary significantly. Some consist of only a single box of material, others comprise more than a hundred boxes. Many of the collections are stored off site.
Individual collections by title
Detailed descriptions and inventories are available online (in PDF format) for many of the individual 'D' collections. Those collections without links
provided have not yet had their contents listed.
