All university offices, committees, and departments create or maintain records of enduring value. These records document the functions and activities of the University at a given point in time and may have significance and usefulness long after their creation. These are documents that are vital to the ongoing operation of the University and are records of administrative, legal, financial, or historical importance.

The collection supports research into the history of the University, higher education, student life, territorial and state politics, Alaska's economic development, biography and genealogy, arctic sciences, agriculture, the Interior's cultural life, and much more.
