We collect, manage, and provide access to archive and rare book collections. We are open to everyone and our archives cover a huge range of topics of local, national and international interest.
Collections
We have manuscripts, diaries, correspondence, business records, maps and plans, books, audio-visual and digital material to inform and inspire you.
We are in the basement of the Tower Building and open, by appointment, to staff, students and members of the public. Visiting us is free and tours of the archives are available.
