This collection of Rhodes University Calendars (1904-1951) forms part of the Rhodes University Archives which is held and curated by the Cory Library for Humanities Research (formerly the Cory Library for Historical Research) at Rhodes University.
The records, comprising the official annual publications of the institution—first as Rhodes University College (RUC) and later as Rhodes University—originated directly from the Registrar's Office and the central administrative functions of the University itself.
As the official repository for the University's institutional memory, the Cory Library holds the collection under its mandate for the University Archives, ensuring the preservation and accessibility of these fundamental primary documents for historical research into the university, the Eastern Cape, and South African higher education.
