The University of Sydney Archives has a wonderful collection. The university historian uses it regularly, as do many other researchers, students and members of the public.
One of the great series that they have is over 9000 photos taken throughout the university’s history. We love this collection so we thought we’d share a few of our favourite pictures. Do you have a favourite?
