Series consists of minutes, correspondence, historical records and photographs created or collected by the Archives and Historical Committee. Material from the Department of Medical Photography and files from the Public Relations Photo and Slide Library are interspersed within these files. Some of this may be due to the dual roles of Committee members, but in the case of files 2.8.49 to 2.8.57 they appear to be files borrowed by the Chair of the Committee.

Some student history cards include an attached picture. Files may also contain certificates of preliminary education (high school academic records); reports including records for hours of nursing care from affiliated Hospitals (e.g. The Hospital for Sick Children or the Toronto Psychiatric Hospital), schools of nursing, and/ or education programs which students attended to receive specialized training and experience; copies of medical records; and photographs. Some files also contain materials subsequently added, including letters from students or their agents requesting letters of reference for employment or information contained in their files, the actual letters of reference, applications for employment in the Nursing Department of the TGH and employment records, newspaper clippings and general correspondence.
