 * The Archive Centre houses the University’s archives and special collections. The subject strengths of our archives and collections are Scottish left wing politics, trades unions, campaign, and pressure groups; Scottish social work, social policy and child welfare; Scottish public health; Scottish social enterprise; and our contribution to the development of Scottish higher education from the late 19th century onwards (dating back to 1875 and the formation of the Glasgow School of Cookery). There is an overriding theme of Scottish social history and social justice present in our archives and special collections.
