AALTO UNIVERSITY ARCHIVES
The University Archives are responsible for the long-term preservation, digitisation and information services of documents and audio-visual collections related to learning, research and artistic activities of the University. The archives' document, image and object collections provide a unique opportunity for an insight into the history and activities of the university and the development of disciplines over a very long time period starting from late 19th century onwards, from 1848 to present day. The collections in technology and art and design provide significant research material in the development of learning, research and artistic activities in Finland.
