The University of Sydney Archives

The University Archives was established in 1954 and holds the administrative records of the University of Sydney as well as the records of institutions which have amalgamated with the University; the Sydney College of Advanced Education (and its precedessors including Sydney Teachers College), the Conservatorium of Music, the Sydney College of Arts and the Cumberland College of Health Sciences. In addition, the Archives holds the personal archives of individuals and bodies closely associated with the University, photographs of University interest and many University publications.

Visit the Archives

The Archives are located on Level 9 Fisher Library. We are open for use by staff, students and the public by appointment.

Due to preparations for the move of the Archives to new a new location (still on level 9 of Fisher Library) our availability for research has had to be reduced. In 2013 the Archives will be closed for between 4 and 6 weeks. We apologise for the inconvenience, but it is unavoidable. More details will be posted as they become available.

Access to the Archives is by appointment only Monday-Thursday between 9:00am and 5:00pm (closed for lunch 1-2). Please contact the Reference Archivist for information on available times.
