Archival collections
The Library's archives preserve and share the inclusive, evolving history of its communities—from foundational institutions to present-day experiences—through a rich collection of documents, artefacts and personal stories.
La Trobe University (LTU) Archives
Our Archives support a living, accountable, inclusive and accessible history of all LTU communities. This history extends from the organisations that formed our university in the 19th century, to the lived experiences of current staff, students and communities.
We value stories that show where we’ve come from and who we are. Our Archives respect both past challenges and achievements, focusing on lived experiences.
The collection includes University committee papers, strategic documents and correspondence, photos, uniforms and practicum tools, personal papers and records from earlier institutions (e.g. Bendigo School of Mines, Lincoln Institute).
