University Records

Records of the University of Washington held by the University Archives are identified as having permanent historical, research, administrative, legal, and/or fiscal value. They exist in diverse formats, such as photographs, negatives, slides, motion picture film, maps, prints, and drawings, microfilm, audio and video materials, CDs, and some electronic records. 

Transferring or Donating Materials to the Archives

For University of Washington Offices

The Archives has implemented a new electronic form for submitting records transfer requests. The form is constructed as an Excel spreadsheet template-at the end of this announcement are instructions and a link to download the template, along with a link to a sample PDF document which can be used as a model for filling out the transfer form.

To save the template to your computer, right-click on the following link and choose: Save target as..., Save link as..., or Download linked file as... (the option depends on the browser you are using) and then save it to your computer.
