Archival Services

The HRC staff supports the institution’s long term goals in a variety of ways. While a major part of our mission is the collection of archival materials, the archives also strive to put these collections to use and actively contribute to the creation of documents that advance MD Anderson’s story.

Archival Services include:

• Reference Questions: Providing limited asynchronous reference services for internal and external clients seeking information about MD Anderson’s history.
• Preservation: Offering guidance on which documents have enduring historical value and how to properly preserve them.
• Digitization: Digitizing materials using archival enterprise standards to ensure long term access and preservation.
• Institutional Repository: Collaborating with clients to create and maintain online collections in OpenWorks @ MD Anderson, the library’s institutional repository.
