Archival Collections

Online Index

The SLAC Archives are a centralized collection of inactive official records of SLAC and personal papers of physicists and staff. Access to material deposited in the SLAC Archives is granted as follows: 

  • Institutional records over 30 years old: open for research
  • Institutional records 30 years old or less: restricted to use by creating office only
  • Personal papers: subject to terms established at time of deposit

All deposits to the Archives have at least a minimal record which includes the name of the creating office or person, inclusive dates, volume of records, and a brief description of the contents. The Archives is completing more extensive indexing of the collection as time and resources permit.
