Cambridge University Archives

The Cambridge University Archives are comprised of the surviving materials related to the administration of the University from within fifty years of its formation onwards. This volume, which was originally published in 1988, lists all of the materials deposited with, or transferred to, the Archives before 30 June 1987. These items are described and analysed briefly to provide a concise, but comprehensive, resource for anyone interested in the history of the University. Whilst the text assumes a prior knowledge of its contents, a short glossary is provided to aid understanding.
