History / Biographical

The Brandon University Photograph collection is an artifically created collection. It includes photographs from both Brandon College and Brandon University.

Custodial History

The custodial history is varied. Some photographs were created by officers of the College and the University, or were produced at the request of the institution. Many, as well, have been donated by former faculty members and students. We have tried to record the custodial history for photographs that have been donated by faculty members and students at the item level.
