The records are predominantly files in paper form. In addition, electronic documents, photos, videos, sound recordings, posters, maps, plans, flyers, seals, stamps and other sources are also archived.
Most of our documents are digitized. The written documents and HSG publications are searchable in full text.
A small selection of historical footage from the university's history can be found on our Youtube channel.
