Retrieving records

Arrangements may be made to retrieve records from your deposit(s). The preferred method is by using our File retrieval request e-mail form. You can also email the Duty Archivist directly at enquiries@archives.gla.ac.uk.

If your request is urgent please indicate this on the form, or alternatively telephone the Duty Archivist on ext. 5515.

If you have urgent requests the faxing of single sheets from your department’s files is possible. Describe these documents as clearly as possible on the request form.

Remember to indicate on the form for how long you as original record creator/administrator want to keep the records. Please contact the Duty Archivist for advice if you are unsure.

We expect that under normal working conditions all requests for information will be processed within 1 business day. If there is a problem locating any document we will inform the requesting department promptly.
