Administrative history
The University of Toronto Scarborough Photographic Services is a department within the University of Toronto Scarborough Campus. The campus was established in 1964 with construction beginning that same year.
The Photographic Services department was formerly known as the Photography and Graphics department. In 1998, the department was housed in Room AC286 in UTSC’s Academic Resource Centre (ARC), along with UTSC’s Library. As of 2013, the services of the department fall UTSC’s Communications & Public Affairs department.
The department has been staffed by two staff photographers over 5 decades, first David Harford and then Ken Jones. David Harford worked for UTSC from the 1970s until 1994. Ken Jones joined UTSC as the University’s Staff Photographer in 1994. The UTSC Photographic Services mandate is to "complete professional-quality custom photographic and imaging services to meet the teaching, research, publication and promotional needs of the UTSC campus" which is reflected in the records within the collection.
Custodial history
Prior to the transfer to UTSC Library, the records were maintained on UTSC campus by Mr. Jones from 1994 until 2012. Mr. Jones’s predecessor, David Harford, maintained the records prior to 1994.
Scope and content
The UTSC Photographic Services fonds covers the years of approximately 1964 and 1966 to 2008. The collection represents an invaluable visual history of the University of Toronto Scarborough campus and is made up almost entirely of photographic materials – negatives, contact sheets, slides, and prints.
Photographs in the collection from the 1970s to 1994 are attributed to David Harford and photographs from 1994 onward are attributed to Ken Jones. Photographs cover a broad range of subjects, such as the buildings and grounds of UTSC, campus events, faculty, staff, students, and much more.

Physical condition
The materials within the collection are in good condition. Some photographs are bent.
Immediate source of acquisition
The records contained within the collection were transferred to UTSC Library when Ken Jones moved out of his former office in AC286.
Arrangement
Original order, as established by David Harford and Ken Jones, is maintained with the exception of a few miscellaneous folders and slide cases for which original order had been lost. Arrangement was imposed on items for which original order was lost. Series arrangement reflects the original order of the collection, as organized by Ken Jones in his AC286 office.
Miscellaneous records that were not arranged in any way or had lost their place in the original order of the fonds were arranged by the archivist and distributed appropriately by medium into the three series. It should be noted that many of the colour photographs found in the collection may be surrogate prints of digital photographs or otherwise prints of negatives or slides within the collection.
Additional subject/keyword access to records is given through the transcription of notations on photographs, recorded in Media/Contents notes of the UTSC Photographic Services fonds box list
