Back issues, archive & keyword search for the University Gazette

All issues of the Gazette published before this week, along with content since 2020 arranged by subject matter and corrections to existing issues.

Finding content in the Gazette

To help with finding specific items of content, an index page listing all content published during a year and arranged by its subject is available below. This exists for each year since 2020/21.

Issues from 2025/26 are available individually on this website. Full PDFs are available to University members through SharePoint. From Trinity term onwards, each issue also has an OxIntranet page.

Volumes from 2024/25 and earlier are available on the Gazette's archive site, hosted by Figshare and enabled by the Sustainable Digital Scholarship service. Volumes which are more than 84 years old are fully accessible to all readers; volumes since 2010 are available as redacted files to all readers, and as complete files to current/retired University members with a SSO account.

Please note: many issues in the archive do not have active links, and some links will not work as expected due to the recent website migration at the University of Oxford. If you are searching for a specific item or topic, please use the Search by Keyword (formerly Content by Subject) listings. 

Please see the Notes section at the end of the Back Issues listings for more detailed information on accessing specific annual volumes.

Statistical information on the University published annually in the Gazette is no longer published separately. This information can be found in the complete volume for the year in question. If you can't find the data for a particular year, please contact us.

Need help?
Email [email protected] if you need pre-2010 content in an accessible format, or if you do not have an SSO account and need a volume published between 1940 and 2000. We are happy to help you access the content you need.
