The set of posters for each Faculty and for 'student accommodation' with photographs of the campus provide an example of approaches to student recruitment.

There are over 70 mainly colour slide transparencies, many taken by Bob Cooper, of the campus and also copies of older photographs of ceremonies and events as background information for an introductory training course in the Administrative Development Program.

The negatives of photographs from 1948 to 1969 are held in glassine bags with a similar-sized print (12 x 9 cm). From 1977, the negatives are held as strips in plastic sleeves, with proof sheets, in binders.

The staff files record staff appointments, promotion, travel, conditions of service and resignation/retirement. Only files of senior academic and administrative staff are retained. Files of Chancellors and Creative Arts Fellows are also included. It is an artificial series bringing together staff files from an earlier single number series, the multiple number Central Files (ANUA 53) and the annual single number Central Files (ANUA 239). An alphabetical list by surname indicates the box in which the file is located. File suffixes include A=Annex and C=Confidential.

The research material includes original statistical tabulations from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, questionnaires completed by Queensland schoolchildren, and population projections. There are also agenda papers and minutes of meetings of the Commonwealth Immigration Planning Council and its committees 1966-1975.

These are general information booklets about the Australian National University. They appear to be written for a general audience with the exception of the 1987 publication which is directed at University staff.

There are a number of versions of booklets and brochures relating to the Mt Stromlo and Siding Spring Observatories.

These research materials were created or gathered by Trevor Wigney and reflect two of his research interests. The collection includes rare copies of the publications of John Dunmore Lang.

The registers record all accessions of books to the Canberra University College Library and from 1960, to the ANU Library. Details recorded include: title, author, publisher, and when received. The D prefix in item 1 refers to books related to the course in Diplomatic Studies. The G prefix refers to Gifts – the donor’s name is also recorded. The microfiche are of a card catalogue which continued the earlier accession registers.

The binders contain copies of transcripts, exhibits and awards relating to cases in the Federal Court brought by various unions relating to the Australian National University and other universities. The binders were maintained by the Industrial Library in the Human Resources Division.

These are hard-bound volumes of the original signed minutes of the Library Committee.

This collection includes teaching materials, publications, material relating to the theatre and travel, as well as family photographs and objects, including items of academic dress.

The Calendar was published annually for the coming year. Apart from a calendar of principal dates, the contents include: a description of the University and the work of the Departments of the Research Schools, lists of Council and Committee members, academic staff, senior administrative staff, graduates, research students, and members of convocation, legislation, statutes and rules, benefactions, and a list of staff publications. For 1971 (Part 1) and 1973 the publication was called General Information. A duplicate set for general reference use is located in the reading room.

There are separate registers for Psychology, Science Communications, Medical, and Sociology for 1997–1999, and registers for Archaeology and Anthropology, Legal, and the Institute of the Arts for 1999. The registers are contolled by an annual single number with alphabetical prefix indicating the subject, eg P=Psychology, SC=Science Communications. In 1999 a new consolidated annual single number system was introduced, eg 1999/25, irrespective of subject.

This original indenture dated 22 July 1734 is handwritten on a page preprinted with the words ‘This Indenture’. It is a lease for land at Childerditch in Essex owned by Elizabeth Denn and John Burton and rented to John Ash for a total of ten shillings with a year’s rent of one peppercorn. It is framed between two sheets of glass and there are windows in the backing to allow annotations on the verso of the document to be read. A transcription has been made of the text, preserving original spelling with expansion of common abbreviations. Its provenance in relation to the University is yet to be fully established, though it is likely to have been donated prior to 1960 as there is a pencil annotation on the backing ‘18/6 CUC’ which appears to refer to the Canberra University College. It hung in the Law Librarian’s office for many years prior to transfer to the Archives.
