The Hokkaido University Archives was established in 2005. We collect, organize, preserve, and allow public access of important documents and materials related to the University’s history.

We conduct research on these documents and Hokkaido University’s history, as well as introduce research results by publishing yearly reports and holding meetings and exhibitions.

The Reading Room is open to the public to consult archival documents. There is a permanent exhibition of Hokkaido University’s history in the Exhibition Hall and the Exhibition Room.
