The City of Vancouver Archives has documented and preserved Vancouver's past since 1933 when the first City Archivist, Major J. S. Matthews, was appointed by City Council. We are a public institution administered by the City of Vancouver and the official repository of Vancouver's civic government records.
We have 1.5 million photographic images in a variety of formats, as well as 2 km of textual records, maps, audio, video, documentary art and born-digital media.
