Our Collection
The types of materials that we collect are in a wide range of formats, including textual documents, photographs and architectural drawings. Apart from unpublished original materials, we also have various hospital publications such as annual reports, newsletters and nursing student yearbooks. In addition to our current member hospitals, records also document Grace Homeopathic Hospital, the Ontario Cancer Insitute and the work of noted cardiovascular surgeon W.G. Bigelow. Finding aids are available on site.

Online descriptions of our material are available through ARCHEION, Ontario's Archival Information Network. Search ARCHEION using "University Health Network" in the Repository Field.
