Welcome
Documenting the history and evolution of Arizona State University, from 1885 to present day, University Archives works to acquire, preserve and make publicly available the historical records of the university, including publications, administrative records, manuscripts, theses and dissertations, photographs and negatives, video and audio recordings, oral histories and news-clipping files.
University Archives accepts materials of permanent, historical value. University records that are a part of the records management cycle and are therefore subject to retention schedules should initially be referred to the Records Management Program overseen by the CFO's office. If you have any questions about determining historical value, please reach out to the University Archivist.
Collections of note
