User Information

Generally the archival holdings can be accessed for research purposes after the legal period of protection (thirty years) has expired (Federal Archives Act par. 1) in compliance with the regulations on data and privacy protection.

A fee must be paid to use the University Archives (see Rules concerning use of the Archives, XV. Fees). On your first visit, please bring a photo ID. Before working with the archival material, you will have to fill in a user sheet. Since work space is limited, we recommend making an appointment ahead of time.

At additional expense it is possible to make photocopies, if there are no objections regarding the preservation of the documents (see Rules concerning use of the Archives, XV. Fees).
