McGill University Archives

The McGill University Archives (MUA) performs integrated archival and records management for McGill University.[1] and is housed on the sixth floor of the McLennan Library Building.

The MUA provides a number of searchable, online databases for researchers.[2] In addition, "A Guide to Archival Resources at McGill University" (1985)[lower-alpha 1] gives a broad overview of archival holdings at McGill University.[3] The McGill University Records Retention Schedule (MURRS)[lower-alpha 2] is also available online, and shows common records created during the daily operations of the University.[4]

The establishment of the McGill University Archives was announced in 1962 by Principal F.Cyril James along with the appointment of McGill’s first University Archivist, Mr. Alan Ridge.[5]
