The Archives are open to all OCAD U community members as well as researchers from the general public. If you need more information on archival donations, how items are preserved or catalogued, access to our collection, or issues surrounding confidentiality/access to information, please contact us directly.
Call for Donations
We encourage all members of the OCAD U community to assist us in documenting our university’s history. By donating materials to the OCAD U Archives, you can provide primary resources that are essential for researching the university’s history, while taking an active part in preserving the institution’s collective memory. Here is how you can help:
- if you are the creator or producer of an OCAD U archival document, set aside an extra copy for the collection
- for OCAD U publications, we ask that you provide us with up to ten (10) copies
- if you are cleaning out your office, storage, personal effects, please set aside anything that might be appropriate; If you are not sure, ask us.
