Manuscripts
The Manuscripts Collection houses personal papers of University staff, graduates, benefactors, and other individuals and organisations associated with the University of Adelaide.
It also holds papers relating to the Library's general collection interests, notably the theatre, music composition, the central Pacific, and Indigenous Australian culture, linguistics, and physical anthropology. There are also collections of authors' manuscripts, individual letters, and documents of interest for their provenance, content, or form.
The official records of the University, and the archives of associated bodies, are held by the University of Adelaide Archives.
