Access

The archives are open to all researchers who are interested in the history of the college, its members, estates and buildings. Many of the archives can be made available for research, by prior appointment.

The Archives Office is situated next door to the Library, at the top of the Old Quad Tower. Please be aware that access is via a steep staircase, so do let us know if you require alternative arrangements.

Please contact the archives by email (archives@bnc.ox.ac.uk) if you have any further queries. The archivist works part-time and appointments must be scheduled in advance. 

Please visit the archives page of the college website here if you wish to know more about the Brasenose archives.
